The New York Gilbert & Sullivan Players (NYGASP) return to Charlottesville to perform one of Gilbert & Sullivan's most popular operettas! The company's dynamic blend of contemporary vitality and traditional respect for the Gilbert & Sullivan canon is combined with a dedicated corps of repertory singers, comic actors, and musicians to yield an ensemble with unique style and flair. This story of duty, deception, and hidden identities centering on Frederic, mistakenly apprenticed to pirates, and Mabel, the woman he loves, is a perfect setting for the humanity and timeless satire which NYGASP brings to their fresh, entertaining productions.
"Opulent .... colorful and inventive ... beautifully crafted ... offered the balance of economy and extravagance that makes Gilbert & Sullivan work..."
