Review: The Pittsburgh Savoyards Present “The Pirates of Penzance”

onStage Pittsburgh: With a stage full of talent, and a good sized, well rehearsed orchestra below, The Pittsburgh Savoyards last night gave the opening performance of Gilbert & Sullivan’s The Pirates of Penzance at the Carnegie Music Hall in Carnegie. A fair sized audience seemed to be having as good a time as the performers, but this show deserves full houses. Stage Director Robert Hockenberry, who has a skilled hand in several other phases of the production, has provided colorful and clever backgrounds against which the abundant talent shines, and the lead roles and large ensembles gave what can only be described as a brilliant opening night.
