The Chattanooga Symphony & Opera is presenting a special semi-staged opera production of New York Gilbert & Sullivan Players’ Pirates of Penzance on Saturday, Nov. 15, at 7:30 p.m. at the Tivoli Theatre.
Review for Pirates of Penznace:
Join the band of swashbuckling buccaneers, bumbling British bobbies, frolicsome Victorian maidens, and the delightfully dotty “model of a modern Major-General” for a rollicking romp over the rocky coast of Cornwall. This exuberant musical theater masterpiece is directed and conducted by Albert Bergeret with choreography by Bill Fabris. The rich sounds of the Chattanooga Symphony & Opera musicians and Chorus, plus vocal soloists resonate with classic elegance and power while the company’s vibrancy, energy, and contemporary sense of humor keep the show alive and exciting to a modern audience.
