The Pirates of Penzance

Havering Music Makers made its debut at the Kenneth More Theatre 3 years ago with Gilbert & Sullivan's 'The Mikado', and we are delighted to return with another well-loved operetta, 'The Pirates of Penzance'. The most well-known collaboration between W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan, it tells the story of an orphan, Frederic, who is about to be released from his apprenticeship to a band of pirates...until his nursemaid, Ruth, reveals a life-changing detail! Take the fantastic music, add a rollicking band of pirates, a policeman's lot (and not a happy one), a very model of a Modern Major General and his daughters (all of whom are beauties) and you have an afternoon, or evening, of fantastic entertainment for the whole family!
