Merrigong Theatre Company presents the Gilbert and Sullivan classic The Pirates of Penzance at the Illawarra Performing Arts Centre from 26 to 29 March 2025.
Five performers, one piano, this is Gilbert and Sullivan like you’ve never seen before!
Making waves in the Sydney theatre scene, Hayes Theatre Co captures the spirit of Off-Broadway in Australia, and now they harness the irreverent, genre-busting spirit of Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Pirates of Penzance.
This brand-new, boisterously joyful adaptation is brought to life by four bold performers, playing all the roles! Sail away in pure escapism with the Pirate King, Ruth, Mabel, and Frederic, as they navigate the high seas of romance, work-life balance, and irritating administrative errors. Plus, a motley crew of singing police, Major Generals and more.
