Pirate Pirate

We went and filled a row at naperville North as Parker performed as the Pirate King in Pirates of Penzance. Peter came dressed for the occasion and looked every bit the pirate. Parker was great. he had style, panache, knew his part and hit his notes. The play is a delight. I think visually it had the most impact when the 36 "sisters" come on stage in their pastel dresses and parasols - though clearly pirates are at the heart of the excitement.
