Description

Board the HMS Pinafore and see if love wins in this wildly popular and comedic Gilbert and Sullivan show!

Stage Director Melissa Grande, and cast member and coordinator extraordinaire Lynette Garlan, talk about the Pittsburgh Savoyards upcoming production of HMS Pinafore. Melissa talks about the story that revolves around a captain's daughter who is in love with a lowly sailor, despite being promised for marriage to a higher ranking officer.

Melissa talks about her work as a director in the Pittsburgh area, and the transition to directing. This is her first production with the Savoyards! Lynette talks about her experience being in the cast of this show, for only the second time since working with the Savoyards.

The 50 person cast and 40 person orchestra is sure to fill the hall of the Carnegie Stage!

You can see the Savoyard's production of HMS Pinafore from March 14th to 16th and 21st to 23rd at the Carnegie Stage. There are also livestream tickets available for the 16th and 23rd.
