In an unprecendented move, the producers of The Pirate Queen have give the performance rights on a one off basis to Ballinrobe Musical Society. They will perform the show between 11th and 20th Feb in Ballinrobe, Co. Mayo. Ireland ( where Grace O'Malley is from and where the story is set). Another opportunity to catch this amazing show!!
It's so stupid this show didn't get a fair chance! What fickle ball was dropped on the PR??
Must have been because it wasn't based on a movie or pop star's gold album. Sorry, MHO.
As much as I enjoy those kinds of musicals as guilty pleasures, I'd love to see a multi-layered play like this get a better shot. Unless it takes up a tour--does anyone know if it will--Or is it too late now?
@Sokushitsu, I think the thing that killed this musical wasn't the songs, but the book. From what I hear, the book didn't come close to doing the show justice.
what'd you think/??? i wich i could've seen it. i wish it had gone to broadway. then i would be able to see it when it comes to SF. (ugh) wishful thinking.
Not to spam, but I'm highly recommending the book this musical is based on. So that this won't turn into an advertising spree, I shall say only that it's called Grania and is by Morgan Llywelyn and will then shut up.
I am so in love with Hadley Fraser it can't be healthy... he is sooo amazing and gorgeous. He has the voice of God. Marry me Hadley...
And Stephanie... in awe, as always! WOW

I am irish, and I love and play irish music. Grace O malley "The pirate queen" is an icon and this "musical" does not do her justice AT ALL.
This is tripe.

Her voice is gorgeous but she sings a little too fast for the tune of the song.
The costumes are stunning and the dancing and music are wonderful.
