The comic opera Pirates of Penzance is set for July 11 and 12 with rapid box plan sales and strong rehearsals. All proceeds go to the local hospital and no complimentary tickets will be issued.

Patrons are urged to book now as best seats are selling, with Cochrane's newsagency handling box plans and 3 seats reservable without extra charge.
