For anyone who's never seen the delightful 1983 movie with Kevin Kline, Linda Ronstadt, Rex Smith & Angela Lansbury, it's on YouTube.
In 2013, I was thrilled to see Kline re-create his role as the Pirate King in a one-night-only ''Pirates of Penzance'' concert at the Delacorte.
And what a cast: Jonathan Groff as Frederick, Martin Short as Major General Stanley, Glenn Close as Ruth and Anika Noni Rose as Mabel.
(Also on YouTube: ''The Pirate Movie'' (1982), a campy adaptation with Kristy McNichol and Christopher Atkins, but I've never watched it!)
