Summary

** "Wappin' Wharf: A Frightful Comedy of Pirates" by Charles S. Brooks is a funny play that peeks into the lives of old, retired pirates living in a cozy cabin in Devon. We meet Patch-Eye and the Duke, remembering their wild adventures and dealing with everyday problems. The story kicks of in their cabin where, while a storm rages outside, the two pirates drink and complain about missing their pirate days. They talk about their old captain, Flint, and their spooky stories, building suspense and adding to their outlaw past. As they joke around, a new character, Red Joe, arrives. Possibilities of a heist appears as a merchant ship is coming and promises the audience a mix of laughs, adventure, piracy and friendship. **
