Synopsis:

Frederick, son of a wealthy 19th century man was to be apprenticed to a pilot, but because of his nearly deaf nurse-maid, he was apprenticed to a pirate instead. And not just any pirate, but the Pirate King, leader of the not-so-fierce "Pirates of Penzance." Now Frederick has fallen in love with sweet innocent Mabel, only his vocation stands between him and marriage to his beloved. Perhaps the situation can be corrected by his old nurse, who made the dreadful blunder years before.
