"the zippiest, wittiest, and cleverest version of a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta to emerge since Jonathan Miller's The Mikado was unveiled thirty years ago......brilliantly inventive."
**** SUNDAY EXPRESS
"Excellent!"
All aboard at Wilton's for another seafaring adventure! The award-winning team that brought Sasha Regan's All Male The Pirates of Penzance to Wilton's Music Hall take you below deck in Gilbert and Sullivan's fourth collaboration and first blockbuster: H.M.S. Pinafore, or "The Lass That Loved a Sailor".
Set during World War II, the troops set out a distraction from the goings on above board. The captain's daughter has fallen for a lower-class sailor but what lies in store for the lass and her hearty seafarer? With infectious tunes and a beautifully constructed libretto, this wonderful comic opera deals with conventionality and the age-old conundrum of love between social classes. Romantic capers on the high seas! Joyful, witty and fun for all the family! Don't miss it me hearties!
