A story of adventure and finding one’s own heart - a path that can’t be found on any treasure map, HOW I BECAME A PIRATE is the musical adventure about a young boy named Jeremy Jacob who gets recruited by the friendly Captain Braid Beard and his mates to help find the perfect digging spot for their treasure. The pirate world proves to have many surprises for Jeremy Jacob, and he ultimately learns that true treasure can be found in the heart and home.
Boasting terrific songs such as "A Good One to Boot," "Green Teeth," "I’m Really Just a Sensitive Guy," "You’ve Got to Talk Like a Pirate," "Pirates Dot Aaargh!" and many others, this delightful theatrical treat, last staged at Circa '21 nearly 10 years ago, will have children of all ages rolling in the aisles.
Circa '21's HOW I BECAME A PIRATE is being directed and choreographed by venue veteran Ashley Becher, who previously helmed productions of “A Christmas Story: The Musical,” “The Addams Family” and “Irving Berlin's White Christmas.”
Krianna Walljasper, a co-star in Circa '21's “Church Basement Ladies” last spring, portrays Jeremy Jacob, with Captain Brad Beard played by Jeremy Littlejohn. Rounding out Becher's eight-person HOW I BECAME A PIRATE ensemble are: Topher Elliott as Swill the Pirate; Kyle Wells as Sharktooth the Pirate; Kelsi Ford as Pirate Pierre; Miranda Simonne as Max the Pirate; Alondra Schuck as Pirate Seymour Braunschwagger and Micah Bernas as Pirate Scurvy Dog.
