Pirates of Penzance

The Theater Company of Hoboken presents
THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE by Gilbert and Sullivan.

A BEACH. A SHIP. LUSTY PIRATES.
BEAUTIFUL MAIDENS. YOU DO THE MATH.

THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE, or The Slave of Duty, is the story of Frederic, who, having completed his 21st year, is released from his apprenticeship to a band of tender-hearted pirates. Upon his release he meets and falls in love with Mabel, the daughter of Major-General Stanley, and shortly thereafter finds out that due to a trick clause in his apprenticeship, he has actually not been released from his indentures. Will Frederic betray his new-found love in favor of his duty? And what of the pirates who are plotting revenge against the Major-General for having cheated them out of plunder? FREE admission (donations appreciated).

Sponsored in part by the City of Hoboken and Mayor Dawn Zimmer, along with DeBaun Center for Performing Arts and Stevens Dramatic Society on the campus of Stevens Institute of Technology.
