Der Yiddisher Pinafore

Opened Aug 12, 2000


Are you ready for Gilbert & Sullivan as you've never seen them before? If so, set sail on this Yiddish adaptation of the duo's classic, H.M.S. Pinafore. The Victorian satire is adapted by The Gilbert and Sullivan Yiddish Light Opera Company. Georgia McGill directs the tale of a poor young sailor's love for a rich Captain's daughter. The Yiddish twist is that what's separating the star-struck lovers is religion, not class. So as you enter the theater, just remember: Think British, Sing Yiddish.
