Summary

Frederick is freed of his indentures to the ferociously temperate Pirates of Penzance. What will he do with his newfound freedom?

This audiobook is based on the libretto from W. S. Gilbert, of Gilbert and Sullivan fame. It includes all the original material in the libretto, adapted to make the tale a narrative, rather than an operetta.

It’s a rare opportunity to celebrate the sharp wit of Gilbert’s writing, as it is brought to the fore.
