The Pirates of Penzance

Name: The Pirates of Penzance
Genre: Music, Comedy, Adventure, TV Movie
Released: 01 Jun 1980
Rating: 6.10
Cast: Kevin Kline, Linda Ronstadt, Rex Smith, Patricia Routledge, Tony Azito

A live 1980 performance in Central Park before the production moved to Broadway.

This Pirates of Penzance is primarily a historical document, part of the Broadway Theater Archive television series. It presents, with some inevitable, tiny technical shortcomings, a live 1980 performance in Central Park, not the 1983 movie of the same name that also starred Linda Ronstadt and Kevin Kline. Those who remember that film, which had the benefit of retakes and editing, a lavish production budget, and the spaciousness of a Hollywood studio, may find this video less polished. On its own terms, it is nonetheless thoroughly enjoyable.

Genre: Music, Comedy, Adventure, TV Movie
Studio: New York Shakespeare Festival, Kultur Video, Broadway Theatre Archive
Keyword: musical, slapstick comedy, pirate, army major, filmed theater
Cast: Kevin Kline, Linda Ronstadt, Rex Smith, Patricia Routledge, Tony Azito, George Rose
