Pirates of Penzance follows young apprentice Frederick who while working for pirates falls for the major-general’s daughter.
The comic opera was written by Gilbert and Sullivan and first premiere in 1879.
Ben Thewlis is playing Frederick and will cross swords with Darcy Worthington as the Pirate King.
Blake Denbrok steps up as “the very model of a modern Major-General” while Chloe Lovell as Ruth and Maddy Kidd as Mabel will compete for Frederick’s affections.
Nexus Youth Theatre is designed to provide a theatrical outlet and connection for high school-aged students in the Bendigo region.
