Thornbury Arts Festival: The Pirates of Penzance Concert
Christ The King Church, Thornbury
BRISTOL GILBERT AND SULLIVAN OPERATIC SOCIETY: A concert version of The Pirates of Penzance
The society has been performing Gilbert and Sullivan operettas since 1962 and currently has about 40 acting and singing members, from children through to pensioners.
After a hugely successful performance at the Redgrave Theatre, Clifton, earlier this year, it is now bringing a concert version of The Pirates of Penzance (or The Slave of Duty) to Thornbury - so NOT in costume!
This well known comic opera is packed full of sentimental pirates, blundering policemen, absurd adventures and improbable paradoxes.
Young hero Frederic was mistakenly apprenticed to a band of kind-hearted but inept pirates. Now his apprenticeship is complete, he’s ready to leave the pirate life behind him and rejoin respectable society. But things get a bit complicated!
Join our piratical band on a swashbuckling adventure.
