ABOUT THE SHOW

The Man Whose Mother was a Pirate – The Musical is a brand-new musical theatre voyage, with songs and sea-shanties crafted by Te Whanganui-a-tara’s own Nino Raphael. Inspired by Margaret Mahy’s much-loved children’s tale and authorised by the author’s estate, this rollicking production breathes new wind and adventure into one of Aotearoa’s favourite stories.

Landing at the Hannah Playhouse this December, the production marks the debut season of this high-spirited show right here in Wellington. Sure to have the young and young-at-heart singing along, The Man Whose Mother was a Pirate – The Musical promises swashbuckling fun wrapped up with a heartfelt message.

“I would fight off crews of pirates to watch it again.”
