HMS
Pinafore
In Concert
21st - 23rd September 2017
Woodside Hall, Hitchin
Musical Director &
Director - Charlie Wakely
Assistant Director - John Cleverley
Accompanist - John Edwards
This September, set sail
with Hitchin Thespians as we present a
semi-staged production of Gilbert &
Sullivan’s comic operetta H.M.S.
Pinafore; or, The Lass That Loved A Sailor.
Gilbert & Sullivan takes a tale of forbidden
love in the British Navy and turns it into a
satire on rank and status, with true love
joyfully conquering all. The H.M.S. Pinafore
is overrun with sisters, cousins and aunts
as Sir Joseph Porter KCB comes to press his
suit with Josephine, the Captain’s daughter;
but Josephine loves crew member Ralph
Rackstraw, a lowly British tar! Set in a
world where the rich gain power through
wealth, not experience, and vilest sea dog
is ignored despite speaking the truth,
Pinafore remains just as funny and
relevant today as it was when it was
written. So give three cheers and one cheer
more, and join us aboard H.M.S. Pinafore!
