Holbrook High School will present The Pirate Bride by Christie Hudon at 7 p.m. on Friday, April 7, and 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Saturday, April 8, at the George Gardner Performing Arts Center.
The Pirate Bride is a story by Christie Hudon about Lizette de Champlay, a headstrong French woman, who evades her wedding and overbearing fiancé and leads her ladies to a British merchant ship. Once aboard, the ladies upset the sailors and their disciplined captain, Roger Thornwood, convincing him to hunt for treasure on an island home to a fierce band of female pirates. As Roger and Lizette begin to fall for each other, Lizette’s fiancé and her father follow them to the island, only to be captured by the pirates. What follows are battles of heart and sword as everyone searches for their treasure.
