"The Pirates of Penzance" at the Guthrie Theatre

A swashbuckling musical delight
As young Frederic approaches his 21st birthday and the release from his unlikely apprenticeship to a band of tenderhearted pirates, a twist of fate (and a leap-year birthday) pulls him into a whirl of heroics, hilarity and the lovely Mabel, who captures his heart. Can Frederic find a way to live happily ever after without abandoning his post? Gilbert and Sullivan's comic operetta employs swaggering pirates, an indomitable Major-General and a beloved musical theater patter "song" to playfully lampoon respectability and utterly delight audiences. Embark on a high-spirited romp helmed by Tony Award-winning director Darko Tresnjak where nothing escapes unscathed — least of all propriety.
