Astwood Bank Operatic Society presents Gilbert and Sullivan’s Trial by Jury and H.M.S. Pinafore or The Lass that Loved a Sailor, as a special double bill.

In Trial by Jury, Gilbert spoofs the legal system as a drunken judge and incompetent jury try to settle the civil case of a breached promise of marriage.

In addition they will be presenting Gilbert and Sullivan’s, H.M.S. Pinafore. Not only is it a wonderful operetta with a brilliant score and hilarious plot, but the story is of love transcending social class aboard the high seas. With its crazy cast of characters and such memorable songs as “I’m Called Little Buttercup”, “Never mind the Why and Wherefore,’”and “He is an Englishman,”,it has been a hit since its premiere in 1878.

Together, Trial by Jury and H.M.S. Pinafore should create an unforgettable night of theatre.
