H.M.S. Pinafore Poster

Description

Gilbert and Sullivan's "H.M.S. Pinafore"

Starring:
Lois Calhern (Two Weeks With Love) as Captain Corcoran
Werner Klemplerer (Hogan's Heroes) as Sir Joesph Porter
Dirk Benedict (A-Team) as Ralph Rackstraw
Rose Marie (Dick Van Dyke Show) as Little Buttercup
Jack Elam (Westerns) as Dick Deadeye
and Shirley Jones (Oklahoma) as Josephine Corcoran

A British Tar may be a soaring soul as free as a mountain bird but such freedom can only go so far. When a sailor lowly born falls in love with the captain's daughter their star-crossed romance rocks the boat. Can love level all ranks or will the waters get rough? Things are seldom what they seem in this rollicking musical comedy about love, rank and mistaken identity!

This poster started out as nothing but a list of actors I thought would be good to play the Pinafore characters. I kind of collected some pictures of them and was just going to put them all on one page. But then I decided 'if I'm going to do it do it right'. So I decided to make a poster out of the idea and this is the result.

This would have been a fantastic cast for that! Now there's a 'coulda been'. I like your poster for it too, Klemplerer as Porter strikes me the most in your renditions here.
