The Pirates really could not pass up the opportunity to put on a full cast production of this story. I mean really, it is a pirate tale of the highest order.

Avast! I’m glad to see you be doin’ a rendition of this here story! It should prove to be a ship shape listen. I be going to try my hand in front of one of them thar microphone thingies to audition for a role in this production!
I really appreciate you suggesting it. I don’t know how we missed it, but it would have been a huge oversite if we had.
I will be auditioning for LJS at the very least. What sort of take would you like on him? Any ACCENTS?
Shall I go Tim Curry on him?
You can do Tim Curry if you like. Honestly I have not decided how I want to do accents for this one. So anyone you like would work just fine.
Up stage boys. This is my only number! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvUbbYX9BMs
Will you have audition texts later on?
You can do any lines you like, this is the text we will be working from http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/120 . If you want specific lines I can get those for you.
I’d love to help out with this in any of the female roles.
Looking forward to seeing who got cast for this production.
Doc
Well I think you got the lead.
Well, I don’t know if it is the lead, but it is definitely the biggest part!
Doc
What a grand adventure to be setting out upon! I’d like to send in an audition for one of the remaining parts. I’ll take the list of remaining characters and the text and give it the old heave ho. What’s the best place to send it?
