Hayes Theatre Co.
Mistaken identity, class warfare, sisters, sailors and tongue twisters abound in this nautical caper. Aboard H.M.S. Pinafore, the captain's daughter Josephine has fallen in love with lowly sailor Ralph Rackstraw, despite her father's plan to marry her to Sir Joseph Porter. A surprise disclosure shows that not all is as it seems. Featuring 'I am the Monarch of the Sea', 'I'm Called Little Buttercup' and 'He is an Englishman', H.M.S. Pinafore is a sharp satire of Victorian England's social hierarchy. Director Kate Gaul makes her Hayes Theatre Co debut with this re-imagined, gender-bending, hyper-theatrical and kinky take on this Gilbert & Sullivan classic.
