Love on the High Seas-with High Cs!

Opera South East takes to the seas with

HMS Pinafore

This nautical tale tells of a Captain's lass who loves a lowly sailor, but her sense of social propriety prevents her from doing anything about it until he threatens to throw himself overboard.

Throw into the mix an Admiral who has never before set foot on a ship, a bumboat woman with a dark secret and a bevy of dancing maidens and horn-piping tars, gloriously 'British' music by Sir Arthur Sullivan and a sparklingly sardonic libretto by W.S. Gilbert, and you have one of the most popular operettas ever written.

 

Not to be missed. OSE looks forward to welcoming you aboard.
