H.M.S. Pinafore / Trial By Jury

H.M.S. Pinafore is a hilarious operetta from Gilbert and Sullivan, which takes place aboard the British ship H.M.S. Pinafore where a navy captain’s daughter, Josephine, falls in love with a lower-class sailor instead of her father’s choice, the First Lord of the Admiralty, Sir Joseph Porter.

Act 2 includes the short comic opera ‘Trial By Jury’ concerning a "breach of promise of marriage" lawsuit in which the judge and legal system are the objects of light-hearted satire. It is a charming story, filled with memorable music and a surprise twist.
