Bristol Gilbert And Sullivan Operatic Society

Where better to celebrate the absurdity of English manners coupled with sublime music than at Bristol Gilbert and Sullivan Operatic Society's new production of The Pirates of Penzance?

A swashbuckling, Topsy-Turvy adventure following the story of Frederic, a young pirate whose dedication to doing what is right causes him all kinds of difficulties.

Throw into that mix double choruses, patter songs, a Pirate King, a Major General, a patrol of bumbling policeman, and a bevy of beautiful daughters and you have all the ingredients of a classic Gilbert and Sullivan show.
