About the Show
freeFall Theatre's original adaptation of Gilbert and Sullivan's 1879 comic operetta, transposing the pirates, the Major-General, and Frederic's coming-of-age tangle into outer space. Conceived and directed by freeFall's artistic director Eric Davis with the resident company, the production opened with a Star Wars-style scrolling credit sequence and brought back Star Trek titles for Act 2, blending the operetta's familiar wit with the visual language of golden-age science fiction. Premiered at freeFall Theatre, St. Petersburg, FL, August 2016.
