Pirates of Penzance



Victorian light operetta given the Broadway treatment is like watching a demented cartoon, but through the rock influenced beats, synthesisers and galloping Americanisms, the quintessential Englishness is so deep, it surfaces every now and then. Unashamedly silly, relentlessly camp, plenty of fun with terrific performances from all concerned. Brilliant if you like that sort of thing.
