Junior high pirates prepare for musical

Posted

North Scott Junior High students rehearse for their 2 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 23 performance of "Lady Pirates of the Caribbean." The show marks the junior high theater group's first performance on the renovated high school auditorium stage. Admission is $5.

Show synopsis:
Esmeralda, the captain of the pirates known as the Lawless Ladies, is called upon to help recover stolen gold from other plundering pirates. She and her crew disguise themselves as a shipwrecked theatrical troupe who happen upon the luckless Parrot Isle, where they are greeted by the willy-nilly Governor Don Juan Futon and his wary sister, Lucretia. With other pirates already in the dungeon at the Governor’s palace, the place is literally swarming with pirates, as well as other crazy characters! Nine zesty songs add energy and fun to the story of how the Lawless Ladies recover the Queen’s chest of gold doubloons, including the hysterical ”Señoritas from Madrid” performance by the lady pirates, who aren’t the talented dancers they pretend to be! Lively songs, comic dance, and plenty of action including a swashbuckling pirate vs. pirate sword fight make this musical comedy a blast!
