Gilbert & Sullivan - Pirates of Penzance

Packed with adventures on the high seas, this comic swashbuckling pirate tale was originally produced in the 1980s as part of the Old Opera series of Gilbert and Sullivan works. As several pirates wait for their favorite apprentice, Frederick, to come of age--and become legally able to leave their nefarious band--Frederick struggles with the clash between his loyalty to the group and his desire to do something with his life besides pirating. When the pirates run into a group of young beach beauties and Frederick falls madly in love with the beauteous Mabel, things get quite out of hand, and the results include a full-blown fight with the members of the local police constabulary.
