ISB Launches `Pirates Of Penzance'
By Helena M. Mahathir

Bandar Seri Begawan - International School Brunei's (ISB) latest musical production, `The Pirates of Penzance' held at the Empire Theatre from March 15-16 was a runaway success.

Sponsored by HSBC, the musical received a great response from the public and followed the success of the school's previous musical productions, `Carousel' and `The King & I'.

ISB's `The Pirates of Penzance' was directed and choreographed by Helen Swan while Nick Jefferson was the musical director.

Together with the rest of the production team, talented cast and crew, months of preparations and rehearsing paid off as audiences were kept entertained with the colourful and comedic performance, enhanced by the full orchestral accompaniment.

`The Pirates of Penzance' was written in 1880 by WS. Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan, whose works have remained popular since they were first performed with many Dramatic Societies all over the world now performing them.

ISB has over the last three years built an enviable reputation for performing fully staged musical productions.

The students have enjoyed rehearsing and performing the piece, especially for the enthusiastic crowd who has showed up and has been looking forward to the next musical production. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
