just for fun (G&S)

Our neighbors are currently in Australia, where they've tickets to Opera Australia's production of The Pirates of Penzance. Here's a vid from the production:

The Pirates of the Caribbean/Johnny Depp influence is sort of fun... and offers the promise that G&S will continue to be relevant well into their second century!

  1. Arrr, me bucko. That part's been filled with clones of Kevin Kline fer so long they're considering Pirates of Penzance II: A Fish Called Frederick. So about time, sez I.

    Now, where's the rum gone?

  2. You are absolutely right, sir. I should have totally given you credit for this on FB. Sadly, that's one that most of us tend to forget. Had I posted it on my blog, I would have.

    But the sin was mine alone, and totally unforgivable. I will promptly defenestrate myself.

  3. Damn. One floor on this house. Entirely ineffective.

    Except for these glass cuts. Do they qualify as a sufficient penalty?
