Hoist the Flag of Fun & Mayhem
Shiver me timbers! The pirates are restless, yearning for a grand piratical adventure. "Oh, for a pirate party!" they proclaim. But, as any good pirate knows, a proper pirate party must be a stolen one. So now, get ready to set sail into the high seas of imagination as Margaret Mahy's delightful tale, The Great Piratical Rumbustification comes to life in a swashbuckling stage performance by Tim Bray Theatre Company.
Join our young hero, Oliver Terrapin, as he opens up the doors of his oblivious parents’ home for a party – a party with real pirates! Mayhem ensues in this rollicking, rumbunctious rumpus of an escapade by Tim Bray Theatre Company that promises the most piratical fun you've had in years. Yo ho ho!
Review: “Perhaps (Tim) Bray's most noteworthy quality as an adapter/director of children's stories is his uncanny ability to find the essence of the works he adapts and to find ways to translate this to the stage. His work with Mahy's quirky creations is no exception. It's been my pleasure to see many of (Tim) Bray's children's theatre works but I have to say The Great Piratical Rumbustification is quite simply his best effort yet and it's all down to harmony.” – Lexie Matheson, Theatreview
