A Victorian Christmas burlesque and pantomime by William Brough, based on the ballet Le Corsaire. It blends pirate adventure, comedy, song and stage spectacle, with characters including the corsair Conrad, a Turkish Pasha and a little fairy at the bottom of the sea. It is worth listening to as a lively example of 19th-century popular theatre.
