The Space Pirates
of Penzance

3.png

       Celebrate the magnificent music and hilarity of a Gilbert & Sullivan masterpiece, with the added excitement of pop culture parody. 

        Your audiences will love this all-ages show, and you’ll discover the pleasure of filling seats with enthusiastic new patrons - some of whom may have never attended theatre before. 

        Gilbert & Sullivan always intended a little good-natured and timely social commentary in their operettas. This new adaptation lovingly does the same, by both skewering and celebrating modern Hollywood in all of it’s glorious excess.

        We know you will enjoy The Space Pirates of Penzance!
