With a Tony-award nominated revival recently on Broadway, you’ll want to introduce tweens and teens to the fanciful, clever humor of Gilbert and Sullivan with this outstanding one-hour adaptation of their most famous opera!  While staying true to the storyline, not all the lines are sung, as you can see in the online sample of the 8 ½“x11” libretto.  Audiences of all ages will love the story of Frederic, who plans to give up life as a pirate on his 21st birthday and marry Mabel, daughter of Major-General Stanley.  Alas, it is discovered that he was born in a leap year...  February 29 to be exact.  As birthdays go, he is only four and will not reach his 21st birthday for 66 years!  The score includes wonderfully singable versions of the classic songs, including “I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General” and “Poor Wandering One.”
