March 13 & 15 — What better time to watch "Pirates of Penzance" than when pirates again sail the high seas?

Put yourself in the mood to laugh along on this rollicking tale of pirates on the high seas and damsels in distress. Peppered with unforgettable melodies and tongue-twisting songs, The Pirates of Penzance is one of the most popular operettas ever written. When: Friday March 13 at 8:00 PM; Sunday March 15 at 2:00 PM
Where: Buitler University, Clowes Memorial Hall

Go here for tickets. In these budget-crunching days, arts groups are offering very good bargains.

The story:
In spite of being apprenticed to a pirate king as a child, Frederic has led a very sheltered life. So when he arrives on shore with his boisterous shipmates, there are few surprises in store for him! It all ends happily, but not before he's dodged the Old Bill, fallen in love and made some rather inconvenient discoveries. Gilbert & Sullivan's popular comedy features such well-known songs as "I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major General" and "Poor Wandering One."

Welcome to IndyBuzz

IndyBuzz provides information about Central Indiana's most stimulating and thought provoking events -- discussions and conferences, art exhibitions, films, music performances. It tells you what's happening … explains why you should be part of what’s happening. More than an events calendar, though, IndyBuzz tries to make events more meaningful for participants by suggesting an article or two to read before the event, recommending books or websites that will be sources of further information after the event, and pointing out related events that are worth attending.

Visit IndyBuzz's sister site, http://www.provocate.org/, which provides a context for the clusters of the events discussed in IndyBuzz.
