‘Paragonia’ opens this action packed musical as the curtains open and the audience is instantly transported to the colourful island of Paragonia. Yet don’t be fooled, because beneath the peaceful appearance of the island lies havoc as the Pinafore Pirates (who are all women!) bring chaos to the land. Tired of their interfering, Daisy decides to make a stand against them and shows real confidence in ‘Daughter of Buttercup.’

After much talk about them, the audience then have a chance to see the pirates during ‘Pinafore Pirates’ and also witness the handsome man Christopher that they have taken hostage who Daisy is desperate to save. The conditions on the ship are anything but luxurious and Christopher learns what he is going to be in for when the cook Sam O’Nella introduces Chris to his cooking during ‘Sam O’Nella and his Irish Stew.’ Starting to feel home sick, and also love sick for Daisy, Christopher takes some time out to reflect during ‘Ribbic!’ as he thinks about the plight he is in.

‘Fairy Fleet’ opens the following scene as the stage transforms from a pirate ship into a magical woodland where the fairies reside. Coming across Daisy, the fairies are eager to help her defeat the wretched pirates and give Daisy a well-needed boost of confidence during ‘Fair Day’s’. They then call upon the help of ‘Princess Ida’ who understands the female mind better than anyone and will be the key to defeating the female pirates. ‘Three Determined Ladies’ follows as Daisy, Princess Ida and the Queen Fairy come together in order to save Paragonia and bring back Christopher!

The three determined ladies then call upon the help of five other people; The Admiral, The Mikado, The Sorcerer , The Major-General and the Duke of Plaza-Toro. Once they have all discussed who is going to lead the mission, ‘Protocol’ follows but no sooner than they finish the song, the pirate ship arrives full of ‘Damsels in Distress.’ The Seven are taken completely by surprise as the Pirates approach them with swords and daggers, but Daisy and Christopher seem completely unaware of the situation that they are in as they embrace each other during ‘Loves Young Dream.’

In a clever twist, the Sorcerer puts a spell on the pirates so that they cannot move, and only those who wish to improve themselves will be able to break free. Surprisingly all of the Pinafore Pirates are able to move and are henceforth released from their contracts by the Queen Pirate. However the only thing that can save the Queen Pirate is the love of a good man, and just as it seems there is no hope left, ‘The British Policemen’ is sung much to everyone’s delight!

After an eventful and action packed musical, ‘Protocol Policy’ brings the show to an end.
