Gilbert & Sullivan’s beloved operetta gets a hilarious 21st-century update with this fun-filled, family-friendly 70-minute reimagination by Chicago-based company The Hypocrites. For delightful summertime fun, lounge in a beach-ball mosh pit while ten actors sing about sappy pirates, dewy-eyed damsels, and of course, a very stuffy Modern Major General.

"...Pirates of Penzance will easily charm you with its devil-may-care attitude (kinda Fringe in the suburbs). It is also an opportunity to become a theatrical co-conspirators in a production. And know that the venerable duo of Gilbert and Sullivan were not harmed, but treated with care and affection."

"...The actors are old pros at performing these adaptations of G & S operettas between their home-base in Chicago to various tour stops around the country. The actors take the audience sharing their space in stride and appear to thrive on the improvisational edge it gives to the show."
