| Summary |
This classic revival of Gilbert and Sullivan's parody-musical The Pirates of Penzance taps into the ridiculous levity of the play so that none of the humor is lost on the modern audience. Starring the irrepressibly funny Tony and Oscar-winner Kevin Kline (A Fish Called Wanda), the play recreates the world of English comic opera, complete with beautiful singing maidens, rowdy singing pirates, and a tongue-twisting Major General. The production features theater legend John Papp as director and Tony/Emmy award-winning vocalist Linda Ronstadt |
