Join the party in our new Osher Studio on Center Street with a delightfully immersive, lovingly loopy, and fantastically eccentric 80-minute take – think banjos, beach balls, and guitars – on Gilbert and Sullivan’s preposterous, topsy-turvy world. This buoyant, award-winning Pirates of Penzance by Chicago theatre rebels The Hypocrites is “spirited, affectionate, and nearly irresistible,” says the Boston Globe.
Pirates of Penzance has two seating sections: Risers and Promenade. You’ll be prompted to choose a section when you purchase tickets online. For traditional fixed seats, choose the riser option.
