The Pirates of Penzance
February 18–March 14, 2027
THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE
about
this show
Witty, whimsical, and delightfully over-the-top, The Pirates of Penzance is a comic operetta brimming with clever wordplay and unforgettable melodies. Featuring bumbling pirates, star-crossed lovers, and a hilariously peculiar sense of duty, this Gilbert and Sullivan favorite is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud adventure for all ages.
Running Time: Approximately 2 hr. 30 min. (including intermission)
Content Advisory: The pirates of Penzance is a preposterous story full of sparkling music and fun (if silly) characters. It is great family entertainment and is suitable for all audiences.
No children under the age of 4 will be permitted in the theatre, including babies in arms.
