Here Comes Gazela
I am a
volunteer for Gazela, the tall ship at Penn's
Landing. She is owned by the Philadelphia
Ship Preservation Guild which is just a non-profit group of
volunteers:) Our Shipwright -
Patrick Flynn coordinates the work to be done on a priority basis.
Gazela
needs funds to keep her sailing and above water.... One of our fund
raising events this year was the Red Light Cabaret. They performed on
Gazela's deck in the Spring and they are back
again September 24th,
25th, and 26th.

Cabaret Red Light brings the Pirates of Ponzi back to Penn's Landing, for an all-new installment in The Seven Deadly Seas, a somewhat true story of Calico Jack, Mary Read and Anne Bonny aboard the Tall Ship Gazela (oldest wooden square rigger in the United States still sailing). This time, a surprise visit by Gentleman Pirate Winthorp - and several others from Never-Never Land - has Jack scrambling to make good on his Pirate Oath.
Featuring seafaring legends old and new, live gypsy swing music, dancing girls and a variety of classic vaudeville-style "entertainment for grown-ups."
Starring Annie A-Bomb, Cubby Altobelli, Kimberlie Cruse and Shoshi Ruth (of Sidetracked Theater), music by The Blazing Cherries and very special guest violinist Marina Vishnyakova - AND introducing Nick Gillette as Gentleman Pirate Winthorp and Christine Fisler as Dread Pirate Blaine!
Proceeds from The Seven Deadly Seas series will help efforts to restore and preserve Philadelphia's own Tall Ship Gazela, a 100-year-old barkentine and a rare piece of living maritime history!
