Ahoy! The Pirate Earl and his colorful – but slightly inept – pirates of the vast golden treasure discover a floating bottle with a note inside. The kingdom has been overrun by anarchy, and these pirates most assuredly cannot let anarchy reign. They proceed to meet the wonderful women of the kingdom, led by a beautiful maiden. The vicious Ladies of Anarchy now rule the kingdom and have banished all men! The pirates and the wonderful women decide to team up in order to restore the kingdom and free the father of the fairest maiden from the dungeon and his certain terrible destruction. Of course, all is finally restored, the king crowns the princess as the new queen, the pirates receive a vast golden treasure, and the quest is rollickingly complete!
This madcap, original musical comedy, written and directed by Springfield’s Dan Hunt, and featuring a cast of local scallywag actors, beauteous actresses, and assorted buccaneers, brigands, and occasional cutthroats, will have you singing along and rolling in the aisles!
Presented by the Springfield Arts Council. Admission-free event; donations are encouraged at intermission.
