Plenty of sweet bites and fresh delights of songs, silliness, and sass.”

Ahoy mateys! Get ready for opera on the high seas with Gilbert and Sullivan's popular piratical comedy. The story begins as young Frederic is due to be released from his accidental apprenticeship to a band of pirates; he dreams of living an honorable life dedicated to love. However, a leap year loophole puts his freedom on the line. When the very modern Major-General's doting daughters arrive, hearts are promised, vows are made, and eventually pirates are pardoned in this light-hearted comedy.

Tickets:
$20 for middle and high school student groups and homeschool groups.
$35 for college groups.

Discounted tickets are available to Title 1 schools. Email us for details.

Sack lunches can be brought and eaten in the lobby or on Seattle Center campus ahead of the performance or during intermission.

For more information and to purchase tickets, email groups@seattleopera.org or call 206.676.5588.
