Set sail with the New York Gilbert & Sullivan Players in The Pirates of Penzance, which boasts one of the most famous patter songs in musical theatre history. First performed at the Fifth Avenue Theatre in New York City on December 31, 1879, The Pirates of Penzance was the only Gilbert & Sullivan operetta to have its world premiere in the United States, and it has remained popular both here and throughout the English-speaking world ever since.
A band of swashbuckling buccaneers, bumbling British bobbies, frolicsome Victorian maidens, and the delightfully dotty “model of a modern Major-General” go on a rollicking romp over the rocky coast of Cornwall.
The semi-staged concert production will feature performers from the Coppell Community Chorale and the Coppell Community Orchestra onstage with the New York Gilbert & Sullivan Players.
