Gilbert and Sullivan’s comic opera, The Pirates of Penzance, is packed full of sentimental pirates, blundering policeman, absurd adventures and improbable paradoxes.

Frederic is due to be released from his apprenticeship on his 21st birthday, but there’s a snag. Born on 29 February, Frederic discovers that he is technically still a youngster. Although very much in love, his dedication to duty is unshakeable. Can he find a way to live happily-ever-after with Mabel?
