CL RECOMMENDS
CL’s Doug DeLoach Recommends: The Atlanta Opera’s 2021-22 season continues with The Pirates of Penzance. Arthur Sullivan and William Gilbert’s delightful 19th century romp around the plank features a cast of merry cutthroats vying in one way and another for the affections of the female wards of Major-General Stanley. — DD

From the venue:

As Frederic enters the rank of full pirate at the end of his apprenticeship, he and his fellow pirates court the daughters of Major-General Stanley. This sets off a hilarious course of riotous events that pit Frederic against his pirate clan. The Pirates of Penzance is a rollicking show featuring famous tunes, including the “Major-General’s Song,” “Oh, Better Far to Live and Die,” and “With Cat-Like Tread.”
