May 13, 2013
Pirates young and old be practicin' for "Pirates of Penzance," but more be needed.
ARGH! Listen up, ye scallawags ... pirates be wantin' to come to Bonners Ferry, but savvy ... more crew is needed.

"Pirates of Penzance," that is, a comic opera to be sorely missed were it not to appear from want of talented shipmates.

"If we don't get some more older performers, putting up 'Pirates' will be extremely challenging," says director David Carpenter, referring, a'course, ter students.

Aye ... so what be ye waiting for? Heave to, ya scurvies! Ye don't even have to audition! All he asks is that ye press yer back to th' task. Aye? Kennit?

Row yer vessel to the Bonners Ferry High School music room between the hours of 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Friday, May 17. All ye need is a desire ta perform and ta be at th' rehearsal. Captain Dave will tell ye the rest, and elicit yer best.

"Please consider getting involved with our show," Captain Dave says, oh so politely.

Ye be hearing no such niceties from me! ARGH ... traverse yer duff or feel the point of me sword. And tend t' yon mizzenmast, HEAVE TO, SWABBIES!
