Mit Gilbert And Sullivan Players Announce Spring Production Of HMS PINAFORE
by A.A. Cristi - May 1, 2018
Not content with her earthly empire, Great Britain has turned her gaze outward, and Her Majesty's Navy now patrols the vast expanse of the final frontier. But where England goes, so goes her notorious class system, and Chief Security Officer Josephine Corcoran and lowly ensign Ralph Rackstraw find themselves all at sea when they fall madly in love. With Romulans in the neutral zone, restless Klingons itching for a fight, and Josephine's social-climbing father, and captain, determined to marry her off to a pompous admiral, the stakes have never been higher for Gilbert and Sullivan's most famous lass and the sailor she loves.

BWW Reviews: Hilarious Old Jewel, Great New Setting PIRATES OF PENZANCE at Atlas
by Jack L. B. Gohn - Oct 26, 2010
Baltimore theatergoers may be pardoned for not being familiar - yet - with the Atlas District in North East Washington, but this emerging arts-and-entertainment area, focused on about four blocks of H Street, is well worth getting to know. The core is the Atlas Performing Arts Center, an Art Deco movie house that was impeccably redeveloped in 2006 after 30 years as a derelict. And surely there could hardly be a better way of making the Atlas' acquaintance than seeing the Washington Savoyards' revival of the 1879 Gilbert and Sullivan hit, The Pirates of Penzance playing there now.
