GOING OVERBOARD WITH H.M.S. PINAFORE!

The Elizabethan Evening is Going Overboard this year with two outdoor performances. Set in the grounds of the Historical Manor Farm in Corsley (once refuge to Sir Walter Raleigh).

The professional theatre company Illyria are performing Gilbert and Sullivan’s much love comic opera HMS Pinafore on Sunday 1st August at 2.30 and 7pm.

Bring a picnic and come and join us on board the HMS Pinafore, the opera cheerfully mocks such Great British institutions as Class, Patriotism and the Royal Navy.

A clueless Captain, a spirited siren and pompous petty officers. No wonder they’re all at sea! Josephine, the Captain’s daughter, falls for the lowly sailor Ralph Rackstraw, she’s torn between her heart’s true love, and her desire to honour her father’s wish for her to marry the First Lord of the Admiralty!

This wonderful production gets the complete Illyria treatment, faithfully performed by a reduced cast on a beautiful nautical set.
