It's time for some pirate fun! How I Became a Pirate, adapted from the much-loved book by Melinda Long will have performances in February, March, and April at Main Street Theater's Midtown location at the MATCH. BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at the cast in costume below!

AHOY, MATEY! When Captain Braid Beard and his crew invite Jeremy Jacob to join their voyage, it's the swashbuckling time of his life! No vegetables or table manners, and you get to have sword fights whenever you want. But Jeremy soon misses things like getting tucked into bed, goodnight kisses and story time. A heave-ho, blow-the-man-down tale you won't want to miss! Recommended for Pre-Kindergarten and up. Children under the age of 3 (including sleeping babies) are not allowed in the theater.

Daria Allen is the director and choreographer of How I Became a Pirate. The cast includes Phillip Brown, Joey Castorena, Michael Chiavone, Sarah Myers, Chaney Moore, and Rodrick Randall.

The design team includes Torsten Louis (set design), Mitchell Cronin (lighting design), KrisTina Hansen (costume design), Shawn W. St. John (sound design), and Mark Robbins (properties design). Elizabeth Bess is the Production Stage Manager.

Performances are February 11, March 4 & April 22 at 11am and 2pm; and SPRING BREAK: March 13 & 14 at 10:30am. Tickets are $20 - $16, depending on section, and are available online at MainStreetTheater.com or over the phone at 713-524-6706. All performances are in midtown at 3400 Main Street in MATCHBox 4. Performances are also available for school groups. Call 713.524.9196 or visit the website.

Note: Main Street Theater offers Accommodations Performances. March 4 has an Audio Description opportunity available: just ask for a headset at Will Call. April 22 at 11am is our Sensory-Friendly performance. April 22 at 2pm is our ASL Shadow-Interpreted performance.
