The Pirates of Penzance

Local Events

Set sail with the University of Florida Opera Theatre and the 60-piece UF Symphony Orchestra for an afternoon of laughter, romance, and rollicking pirates! Follow Frederic as he wrestles with a truly ridiculous twist of fate: a leap-year birthday that keeps him tied to a band of soft-hearted pirates far longer than he ever imagined. Along the way, you’ll meet a blundering Modern Major-General, his chorus of daughters, and a cast brimming with mischievous creativity. The wit and spirit of Gilbert & Sullivan’s beloved masterpiece shine in this delightful performance.

The talented performers of the UF Opera Theatre, who have brought The Phantom of the Opera, Hansel and Gretel, Gianni Schicchi, and Opera Goes to the Movies to the Reilly Arts Center stage, make up this dynamic cast.
