HMS Pinafore in London

A clueless Captain, a spirited siren and pompous petty officers. No wonder they’re all at sea.

Gilbert and Sullivan’s comic opera HMS Pinafore is a hilarious tale of love, honour and duty.

Packed with absurd characters, unforeseen plot twists and a delightfully farcical finale, Pinafore is a satirical take on the British class system and the promotion of unqualified people to positions of power.

When Josephine, the daughter of Captain Corcoran, 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 Sir Joseph Porter, the First Lord of the Admiralty.

Cal McCrystal returns to ENO to direct this new production following his smash-hit staging of G&S’s Iolanthe, ‘a grand and gorgeous extravaganza’ (Daily Telegraph).

Making his operatic debut as Sir Joseph is the actor and entertainer Les Dennis. He is joined by John Savournin as Captain Corcoran, with ENO Harewood Artists ElganLlŷr Thomas and Alexandra Oomens as Ralph and Josephine. ENO favourite Chris Hopkins conducts.

Gilbert and Sullivan shows are so rare and to see a super one like this was fabulous.

Great acting, singing, dancing, super clever stage sets, what’s not to enjoy! First time at this theatre and so impressed with it, and the staff were lovely as well!

a good show but difficult to hear the actors talking, there seems a need for more amplification of speech but the singing was okay

You got to love Gilbert and Sullivan

HMS Pinafore can be enjoyed on so many levels. This production brought out the wit and humour very well. Music, ‘show’ and entertainment value couldn’t be better
