\H.M.S. Pinafore\ delights a nearly packed Touhill
2005
Overview
The Savoy operas have casts that are virtually interchangeable, as Anna Russell observed. The little patter song baritone in \"Pinafore\" is Sir Joseph Porter, K.C.B.; Stephen Brien portrayed him with the dry vocal tone and dry humor appropriate to the part. Soprano Elizabeth Hillebrand brought a pretty voice and person and a wicked sense of fun to the role of Josephine, the captain's daughter. She was well-matched with tenor Andrew MacPhail, who sang beautifully and looked right in the part of Ralph Rackstraw, the able seaman who loves her. As Captain Corcoran, Edward Prostak exhibited good comic timing, but his Act II aria was not up to snuff vocally. Little Buttercup (this opera's great fat contralto) was broadly portrayed by Angela Smith. Louis Dall'Ava's Dick Deadeye made the most of his comic opportunities.
