Early Bird Ticket

Great Lake Operetta's First Annual Fundraising Singalong ~ The Pirates of Penzance! Pour the pirate sherry and join us in the cozy dining room of Borelli's Pizza to sing along with the timeless words and music of Gilbert & Sullivan's most famous and beloved comic opera, The Pirates of Penzance! Within the Gilbert & Sullivan fandom, there is a long tradition of unrehearsed, group "sing-outs" or "singalongs" (sometimes called QWERTYs). To our knowledge, there has not been an open G&S singalong event in Chicago in numerous years, and GLO hopes that this one will be one of many future such events! Please join us in making this one a success! Your ticket purchase will help support GLO in our crucial, inaugural season! <ul><li style="width:100%;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;box-sizing:inherit;color:rgb(0, 49, 83)">The Singalong will be accompanied by a live pianist and will include all the music (except the overture) and all the dialogue!</li><li style="width:100%;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;box-sizing:inherit;color:rgb(0, 49, 83)">All attendees are welcome to sing along with the chorus sections (sing any voice part you want/you already know)!</li><li style="width:100%;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;box-sizing:inherit;color:rgb(0, 49, 83)">Bring your own copy of the vocal score or your mobile device (to access the free digital score available online). </li><li style="width:100%;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;box-sizing:inherit;color:rgb(0, 49, 83)">Just want to eat and listen?
