Event Description

Book, Music, and Lyrics by Janet Yates Vogt and Mark Friedman
Based upon the book How I Became a Pirate, Written by Melinda Long and Illustrations by David Shannon


Captain Braid Beard recruits Young Jeremy Jacob and his amazing sand-digging skills to help find the perfect digging spot for the pirate treasure. As the Captain introduces the boy to his pirate crew, showing him the often-surprising ins and outs of life at sea, Jeremy believes the pirate’s life is for him.  Jeremy shows the pirates the joys of being a kid, especially the thrills of the game of soccer. Jeremy soon realizes the riches in life are the little things he misses, being tucked in with a kiss at night at home with his family, and these are more important than any buried treasure. Join us as we set sail for this rollicking fun and musical escapade.  A story of adventure and finding one’s own heart – a path that can’t be found on any treasure map!


Performed by arrangement with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and The Sandra Dijkstra Literary Agency
How I Became a Pirate received its world premiere at First Stage Children's Theatre, Milwaukee, WI.
