Roundabout Theatre Company have announced a new reimagining of The Pirates of Penzance at Broadway’s Todd Haimes Theatre in April 2025, starring Ramin Karimloo and David Hyde Pierce as The Pirate King and W.S. Gilbert & Major General respectively.

Adapted by Rupert Holmes, the production will be directed by Scott Ellis and choreographed by Warren Carlyle, with musical direction by Joseph Joubert, and orchestrations by Joubert and Daryl Waters.

Gilbert & Sullivan’s pirate ship docks in New Orleans in this jazzy-bluesy vision of the crowd-pleasing classic, in an outrageously clever romp sizzling with Caribbean rhythms and French Quarter flair. With the tongue-twisting Major-General, the rabble-rousing Pirate King, newly imagined young lovers, daring daughters, footloose pirates and fleet-footed police, there's a shipload of musical comedy delights on board to dazzle first-timers and G&S aficionados alike.
