HMS Pinafore 2003

Rodgers and Hart’s classic 1938 musical comedy adaptation of The Comedy of Errors will return to the London stage for the first time in over ten years in a madcap tale of mistaken identity, danger and romance in ancient Greece! 

Boy, I wanted to enjoy this way more. I have been an ardent fan of the Gilbert and Sullivan Society of Houston since I moved to Houston in 2021, and their post-pandemic performance of HMS Pinafore left me excited for future G&S Society of Houston productions. In 2023, they followed up HMS with Pirates of Penzance (the first of what I hope are many showings of this production), and again, I was excited to see what 2024 would bring. Unfortunately, with a change of venue, while there were some incredible performances, much was left to be desired.
