WANG OPERA CENTER
Set aboard the British naval vessel H.M.S. Pinafore, this lively and witty comic operetta explores themes of love, class and social expectation with charm and humor. Josephine, the captain’s daughter, is expected to marry the distinguished Sir Joseph Porter, but her heart belongs to Ralph Rackstraw, a sailor far beneath her social standing, setting the stage for comic complications.
Thank you for supporting the Opera Naples Summer Youth Program. This incredible program challenges and nurtures performers by building and improving vocal and theatrical skills. In addition to rehearsing the production, youth participate in masterclasses and workshops focusing on vocal technique, acting, improvisation and prop construction.
