Everyone is invited to say their farewell to their beloved pirates, played by renowned musical theatre actor Philip Gould (Pirate King), veteran comic baritone Brian Hannan (The Major General and The Police Sergeant), international soprano Alison Jones (Mabel), Opera Australia mezzo soprano Caroline Vercoe (Ruth), and Chris McKenna (Frederic).

As always, the group will perform with a full set and costumes. See them for the last time as they clash with swords and trade barbs while singing the modern versions of “I Am The Pirate King”, “Policeman’s Lot is Not a happy One”, “Cat Like Tread”, and “Poor Wandering One”.
