A futuristic take on an old classic!

Originally set in the last third of the 19th Century, Richmond Operatic are delighted to warp the classic G & S Operetta, HMS Pinafore forward some 500 years, setting it aboard an intergalactic Starship!

It tells a comedic tale of love, honour and duty. Josephine, the committed daughter of the Starship's Commander, Captain Corcoran, falls for lowly Specialist 2nd Class, Ralph (Raif) Rackstraw. However, her emotional turmoil is fuelled by her true love for Ralph, set against obeying her father, whose greatest desire seems to be his arrangement of a marriage to the venerable High Counsel of the fleet, Joseph Porter.

Love, honour, duty and a spaceship, what more could you want from a musical?!
