A small segment of Holy Cross' Student Theater production of The Pirates of Penzance.
Fredric (Kyle Humphrey) was previously under the training of a pirate band lead by Richard the Pirate King (Russ Stepan). He left when on his 21st birthday when he believed his contract with them was up. His nursery maid, Ruth (Beth Killian) has fallen in love with Fredrick, but is too old for his tastes. He leaves after a quarrel with her saying that it is his duty to leave. Fredrick falls in love with a girl and her father lies to pirates saying he is an orphan(but he isnt) and that hits the pirates soft spot. They let him live and let Frederic go on his way. Fredric vows to put the pirates away in prison. THEN The Pirate King and Ruth return with some news that Frederic had overlooked.

  • What Holy Cross is this? College of the Holy Cross in MA?

  • It's Holy Cross High School in CT

  • I'm assuming from your screen name that you are the pirate king.

    You are very, very talented.

    My community theatre recently did this show... and your voice is just as full and rich as our king was.. and he was a middle aged man.

    I don't mean to be rude, but I wonder how old you are here?

    Either way, you are quite talented and I hope to hear more of you in the future.

  • thank you! I was 18 at the time.

  • Because, ever since the 1980 Joseph Papp production of Pirates in NY, where he put it in, many people have copied the idea. It is a great trio, and since most people don't ever perform Ruddigore (too bad), I guess it's at least good that people get to hear it.

  • why on earth have they used the trio from ruddigore?

  • No, she's supposed to be a contralto, but the girl here is clearly not one. You can make it work, as the this soprano does.

  • Is Ruth actually a soprano? Cos Im playing Ruth and Im a soprano and Im really worried about it

  • Ha, this was a great show. and believe it or not, this is the first time ive seen this part....besides the halos.........yarrgh dammit.

  • What is up with Frederic's voice? One part it goes his and then the other it goes low.
