Review (PDF) The Pirates Of Penzance: (Libretto)
The Pirates of Penzance takes its place along with The Mikado and H.M.S. Pinafore as one of the more frequently performed Gilbert and Sullivan operas. Its successful 1981 Broadway revival by Joseph Papp refreshed its popularity.

The book contains all of the play. The format is disappointing: the main body of type is gray, and the low contrast makes reading difficult. "Pirates" has some dense phrases which only compounds said difficulty.
This was lovely to have as I am preparing my school for a performance of the opera. It was sweet, with lovely drawings...The perfect way to introduce the story.
Simple and fun!
