SUMMARY:The Pirates of Penzance Auditions
DESCRIPTION:Written By: Gilbert and Sullivan \nCreative Team: Director: Bronwyn Calvett\nMusical Director: Helen Loveday \n\nOn the southern coast of England\, Frederic\, a young man of 21\, celebrates the end of his apprenticeship to a band of pirates. He believes the pirate way of life is wicked\, and that the crew should consider a respectable lifestyle. The Pirate King claims that\, compared to a respectable lifestyle\, piracy is honest.\nFrederic prepares to leave the pirate ship with his nursemaid Ruth in tow. On the beach\, they stumble upon a group of beautiful young women. Frederic asks them to help him reform from his pirate life. All reject him except Mabel\, and the two quickly fall in love.\nThe pirates return to storm the beach and capture the young women\, intending to marry them. The women’s father\, the Major-General\, arrives and objects to his daughters being married against their will. To save them\, he claims to be an orphan. As orphans themselves\, the pirates are sympathetic and agree to release their captives.\nLater at home\, the Major-General laments his lie\, and his daughters try to comfort him. The police sergeant arrives and tells them that with Frederic’s help\, he is prepared to arrest the pirates. Frederic considers this an opportunity to atone for a life of piracy. The Pirate King and Ruth arrive and inform him that he was to be apprenticed until his 21st birthday and\, as he was born in a leap year on February 29\, he is actually only 5 years old. The Pirate King insists that Frederic honor his sense of duty and return to the pirates. Upon realizing this\, Frederic tells the Pirate King of the impending attack.\nBefore leaving\, Frederic meets with Mabel to tell her of his plight\, and they agree to be faithful to each other until his return. Mabel tells the police that they will have to face the pirates alone\, not knowing the pirates are planning an attack of their own.\nThe pirates attack the Major-General’s house and easily subdue the police. The sergeant begs for mercy in the name of Queen Victoria. Ruth reveals that the pirates are in fact nobility\, and the pirates free the Major-General out of their sense of loyalty to the Queen. The Major-General\, happy to have his daughters wed noblemen\, offers the pirates their hands in marriage as thanks. All join in celebration of the approaching weddings. \n\nInformation Session: 13/10/2025\nSt. Elizabeth of Hungary Anglican Church\, 12 Dwyer Rd\, Oaklands Park. \n\nAudition Information: https://www.facebook.com/events/2586087095078196/2586087101744862/?active_tab=discussion \n\n\n\nAudition Information #:1\n\n\nDate:\n19/10/2025\n\n\nTime From – Time to:\n14:30 – 20:00\n\n\nAudition Information #:2\n\n\nDate:\n20/10/2025\n\n\nTime From – Time to:\n19:30 – 23:00\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:1\n\n\nRole Name:\nMajor-General Stanley\n\n\nGender:\nMale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\n(comic lead)\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:2\n\n\nRole Name:\nPirate King\n\n\nGender:\nMale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\nswashbuckling leader of the pirate band\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:3\n\n\nRole Name:\nSamuel\n\n\nGender:\nMale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\nPirate King’s second-in-command\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:4\n\n\nRole Name:\nFrederic\n\n\nGender:\nMale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\na pirate apprentice\, romantic male lead\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:5\n\n\nRole Name:\nSergeant of Police\n\n\nGender:\nMale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\nPolice sergeant\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:6\n\n\nRole Name:\nMabel\n\n\nGender:\nFemale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\nromantic female lead\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:7\n\n\nRole Name:\nEdith\n\n\nGender:\nFemale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\nsister of Mabel\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:8\n\n\nRole Name:\nKate\n\n\nGender:\nFemale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\nsister of Mabel\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:9\n\n\nRole Name:\nRuth\n\n\nGender:\nFemale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\na piratical maid-of-all-work\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:10\n\n\nRole Name:\nIsabel\n\n\nGender:\nFemale\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\nsister of Mabel\, no solo singing but some dialogue\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:11\n\n\nRole Name:\na chorus of Daughters\, Pirates and Policemen\n\n\nGender:\nUndefined\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\nMuch flibberty gibberty… \nTo find out more about roles\, come to the info night\, or speak to our directors!\n\n\n\n\nMore Information at: https://www.facebook.com/events/2586087095078196/2586087101744862/?active_tab=about\nInformation night – 7:30pm on Monday 13th October at St. Elizabeth of Hungary Anglican Church\, 12 Dwyer Rd\, Oaklands Park. \nAuditions to be held at the same venue: There will be group auditions for Chorus on Sunday 19th October at 2:30pm and Monday 20th October at 7:30pm.
