“The epic pirate musical you didn’t know you were waiting for!
Great writing, the story and dialogue are snappy and compelling, and the vocal performances both spoken and sung are individually and collectively excellent. I love all the background detail, and how even minor characters are distinctive and well-realised.
The music too is extraordinary; shifting from big-budget Disney musical to Kurt Weill, via Sondheim-style recitative and a socialist sea shanty, and yet all these elements feel part of a coherent and original whole. The whole thing is put together with real care and rich production values. Brilliant stuff!”
