HMS Pinafore - Performed by Illyria
Saturday 2nd August 2025
Gates open 6.45pm Show 7.30pm - 9.30pm
Adults - £18 Children - £10 Friends of the Palace £15
Set on board the warship HMS Pinafore, the opera cheerfully mocks such Great British institutions as Class, Patriotism and the Royal Navy.
Josephine, the captain’s daughter, is in love with Ralph a common sailor; but her father wants her to marry Sir Joseph Porter, First Lord of the Admiralty. The couple are caught as they elope from the ship and Ralph is locked in the ship’s dungeon.
Only when certain revelations are made by Buttercup, a dockside vendor, can everyone end up freely marrying their true hearts’ loves. This comic opera gets the complete Illyria treatment, faithfully performed by a reduced cast on a beautiful nautical set.
Running time (approx): 2hrs (inc 20 minute interval)
Suitable for all ages.
This is a fundraising event for the Palace Trust.
