Sudbury Savoyards Bring Play to Town This Weekend

The play opens Thursday and runs through March 1.

If you're looking for some good theater, you don't have to go all the way to Boston or Broadway. You can stay right in Sudbury.

The Sudbury Savoyards are bringing a performance of The Pirates of Penzance to town starting on Thursday.

Under the direction of Dennis O'Brien and Kathryn Denney, the group will perform "one of the most popular of the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas," according to their website.

The play will take place in a "Steampunk" theme, according to the group.

"This is a genre of speculative fiction which supposes that Victorian technology had continued to grow and evolve free from the changes wrought by the 20th century," the description reads. "It has been described as 'what the Past might have looked like if the Future had arrived earlier.'"

After opening on Thursday night, the show runs through March 1. Performances will take place inside the Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School Theater.

For tickets to any of the performances, call (978) 443-8811. For more information on the Sudbury Savoyards, you can visit their website.
