As a pit musician, this Teacher Edition is a practical choice for school musical gigs. The accompaniment is well-written and supportive for unison and optional harmony choral parts. While it's a full score, the clear layout of the songs within the 35-minute runtime makes rehearsals efficient. It's comprehensive for its intended purpose.

This Teacher Edition of Pirates! The Musical is a fantastic resource. The unison and optional harmony parts are perfectly pitched for grades 4-8, making it ideal for teaching vocal technique and reading. The engraving is clear, and the included production guide simplifies staging. A genuinely engaging and accessible show that builds student confidence and enthusiasm for musicals.

I used this musical with my grade 4 and 5 class. The music was very catchy and the kids did not tire of practising it. Even the boys thought it was fun to sing when you're a pirate. The lines are divided up quite evenly so that it is not too much for any one student to learn. I would HIGHLY recommend this musical. Check out songs and performance ideas on YOUTUBE.

We are doing this play inside school. It's a good one, and many of us enjoy it. It helps the slower kids, too, because of it's 'slower' music. -K.P.

My 4th grade daughter's classes just put on this play. The children loved the story and songs. The audience loved the fact that the children loved it so much and enjoyed practicing and performing it. The format allowed a speaking part for many of the children which thrilled them. For elementary school students this is a really good choice.

At my school we're doing this play. As an 8th grader I have to say that this may be the worst play ever. The dancing is boring, the dialouge is awful, and the characters are 5-year-old material. At best. The only good thing about this play is that its just 40 minutes. I don't think I could stand it if it were any longer. DO NOT BUY!
