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!
