“A PIRATE’S LIFE FOR ME!”

Auditions on June 16, 17 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm, Callbacks on June 19

This wonderfully hilarious musical comedy involves the signature pirate roles; “Bluebeard” and “Long John Silver” but adds English Royalty, “Captain Blood” and a “Pirate Queen” into the mix. The eclectic score of sea shanties and contemporary styles adds to this upside down swashbuckling comical tale.
