THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE
Tideway's Summer Production 1973
By Andy Gilbert
In the early 1970's, Tideway became known for putting on Gilbert and Sullivan operas for the summer production. 1973 was the Pirates of Penzance. Here's my copy of the poster, signed by most of the cast and backstage crew on the last night.
How many names do you recognise? How about the staff members? Who was Wallace?(I do know the answer!) Is YOUR signature here? (I know some of you are reading this!!) Do you remember the after-show barbecue at the west beach?
