Who's cast as the Pirate King?

Stratford wll be hard pressed to repeat the incredible success and genius that Brian MacDonald brought to G&S. His influence on performances is still felt in many productions. It will be interesting to see what happens.

Brian MacDonald ruined G&S at Stratford...pray God that history does NOT repeat itself.
