Here's a pic of the stage Scene I Act I during rehearsal for Bay Theatre Player's production of Gilbert & Sullivan's Pirates of Penzance

Director ~ Barb Gellatly

Musical Director ~Linda Oxley) 

 Barb intends remaining faithful to the original libretto by W.S. Gilbert and the musical score of Sir Arthur Sullivan

Discover (or rediscover) why a satirical musical comedy of the inter play between a Pirate King, a modern Major General, some incompetent British bobbies (that's us) and a chorus of lovesick maidens, has proved to be a real crowd pleaser for over 130 years!

I have thoroughly enjoyed rehearsals for this production and have learnt so much from the all the cast and crew

Tomorrow it's Curtain Up for us!!!!!!!!

I've been rehearsing with the crutch this past week and it has fitted in really well with the play

So much so that I've been given an old walking cane to use as a prop

So it's on with the show now......tarantara tarantara
