Story

Ramin Karimloo, Jinkx Monsoon, and David Hyde Pierce lead the crew in Pirates! The Penzance Musical, this must-see Roundabout reimagining of The Pirates of Penzance. Scott Ellis (DoubtKiss Me, Kate) directs and Warren Carlyle (HarmonyKiss Me, Kate) choreographs with a hilarious new adaptation by Rupert Holmes (The Mystery of Edwin Drood), musical direction by Joseph Joubert (Caroline, or Change), and orchestrations by Joubert and Daryl Waters (Memphis). 

Gilbert & Sullivan’s pirate ship docks in New Orleans in this jazzy-bluesy vision of the crowd-pleasing classic, in an outrageously clever romp sizzling with Caribbean rhythms and French Quarter flair. With the tongue-twisting Major-General, the rabble-rousing Pirate King, newly-imagined young lovers, daring daughters, footloose pirates and fleet-footed police, there's a shipload of musical comedy delights on board to dazzle first-timers and G&S aficionados alike.

Pirate's Bravo
"This take on the original Pirates of Penzance was very entertaining and quite funny. The cast was excellent and obviously love what they do. The four leads played their roles to the hilt. Especially entertaining, with an outstanding voice, was Samantha Williams in the role of Mabel!"

Pirates did not disappoint
"We travelled from Wisconsin to celebrate our 55th Anniversary and my husband's birthday. He was a pirate in a community theater production and I created the costumes. We then saw it at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis. This production was so much fun. The physicality of the performers,the stunning costumes,the clear sound, gorgeous set. All of it was a night to treasure"

Love Pirates!!!
"I have been a fan of this musical since I was 6 years old. The chance to see it on a Broadway stage was once in a lifetime and a dream come true. The vocal power of Ramin Karimloo as the Pirate King was unforgettable, as was the humor and slapstick charm of David Hyde Pierce as the Major General. The whole production was fun and brought this fan of the original show such joy. "

Amazing performance, beautiful set
"Everything was perfect, the laughs, the character breaks, the set. The set was GORGEOUS. The colors, the lights, the way the trees looked, the way the town looked, it was all so beautifully painted."

A fun night at the theatre.
"As a fan of David Hyde Pierce, I was so happy to finally be able to see him on stage. He does not disappoint. The entire cast was talented and seemed to be just having fun and wanting the audience to join them for the ride. Not having seen or been too familiar with Jinxk Monsoons work, I was so pleased at what a wonderful performance she gave. She was no “celebrity casting” to fill seats. She was wonderful! Embodying the part and adding a most enjoyable bit of extra. The set was well conceived and very functional. Orchestration was very good and helped the flow of the piece. For me, the second act was a bit muddled. As much as I loved Modern Major General, I think a second patter song was not necessary . It would never be as good. I do think the song could have been in a different style. what the song told needed to be conveyed, just differently. The closing number was good, but it seemed to be suddenly the end of the show. Not necessarily in a good way. I felt that a lot of the second act plot was a bit steamrolled. Maybe a bit of cleaning and tightening up would help. I am a big fan of the original operetta, and wish more of that music were in Pirates. I did appreciate the reimagining. Overall I really enjoyed the show. I don’t think anyone could see it and not have a good time. I would and have recommended it to others. Now make me happy and record a cd/download. "
