Poor Wandering One | The Pirates of Penzance | TUNE

Despite his pirate past, Mabel (Linda Ronstadt) falls for Frederic (Rex Smith) and thinks he deserves a chance.
What is The Pirates of Penzance (1983) about?
Frederic (Rex Smith), who has spent his formative years as a junior pirate, plans to mark his 21st birthday by breaking free from the Pirate King (Kevin Kline) and beginning his courtship of Mabel (Linda Ronstadt). But because he was born on Feb. 29, a date that only arrives every fourth year, Frederic isn't technically 21 -- and the Pirate King is still his master. Unless something gives, Frederic will soon be on a collision course with the Pirate King's new nemesis: Mabel's father.

Oh man, Linda can SING and is additionally SO BEAUTIFUL! Bless her heart, she has brought us so much joy during her long and wonderful career. Sending BIG LOVE to her always.

[@chadfarrell5457]

She is fantastic, and looks incredible, but Linda Ronstadt is also hysterically funny in her obliviousness to Frederick

[@JordanVanRyn]

Linda Ronstadt really had a diverse range of vocal talent. She can do rock music, songs for children's movies AND Opera. This performance proves it.

[@krash66]

The amazing Linda Ronstadt could (and did) sing any genre and not only crush it, but also make it look effortless!

I was lucky enough to see this in Central Park when it first came to be. My dad was NYPD and loved to sing. The chorus behind the scenes would grab him and he would sing with them. One day he took my sister and I to see it. He grabbed Rex Smith and said" hey Rex come meet my daughters "and we all took a picture. I also saw Kevin Kline and Linda Ronstadt walk in together. What great memories!

[@SweetPeaz-gf4nl]

Thank you so much for posting this…Linda has been singing the songs of my life since The Stone Poneys. 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

[@janedoe5229]

". . . take any heart - but ours! . ." So beautiful!

[@ingerlander]

My word....could Linda hit those notes

[@deadandburied7626]

See this at a movie theatre, Linda bigger than life singing her heart out 😊

[@copferthat]

She's not at all well now, she an't sing and suffers dementia. Tragic, thank you Linda for such memories

[@hawktchr8]

In 2019 a new diagnosis of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy was announced, however no one and nowhere is there evidence she is suffering from dementia.

[@gregorycosta1043]

I don't know where you got that she's suffering dementia. She has a Parkinson's-like disease, but she's still sharp as a tack and her humor is still very much there.

[@copferthat]

@@gregorycosta1043It's what I heard and if it's wrong I am very happy to be. All the best Linda

[@ginaorsini3312]

A form of Parkinson disease, she can remember just fine

[@Molly_1123]

Killer performances from the entire cast makes this one of the funniest musicals (not just operettas) OF ALL TIME!

[@Kamay64]

Always loved her music...But I never knew she could hit these notes! LOVED THIS!!!

[@deadandburied7626]

Gorgeous Linda Ronstadt 😍

[@gonetoutah]

While you are listening to this song remember that is the Queen of Rock singing. There has never been another singer like her, she can sing anything.

[@MrButtonpresser]

A favourite

[@charlesajones77]

It's such a shame that Linda Rondstat can't sing anymore. She has a condition similar to Parkinsons that makes it effectively impossible.

[@MaryHemmings]

“Take heart of grace”…. Beautiful mind…. She knows how to to take down T$$ump. That was the title of my MA history thesis.

[@brendasaltz8166]

Take Heart 😘❤️ Be true ❤️

[@crystalv6122]

There is nothing she can’t sing ❤

[@robertthomson2159]

Be still my beating heart....

[@denisegillen1845]

Chills! Every. Time.

[@randyventresca4152]

Greatest, most diverse female vocalist of her generation. If opera singers sang like this....like real people...I'd be there every week 😏

[@grantyoungblood7895]

You mean if opera singers sang like they were lip-syncing to a studio recording they made weeks or months before?

[@blanchetist]

Quelle splendeur !

[@markbigelow2608]

Beautiful❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@PntrGrl]

Linda is fabulous in this. I've sung this song and its difficult and fun!

[@anthonyrussomanno1540]

Linda Ronstadt is amazing my favorite female vocalist ever

[@MegaAtomium]

Same!

[@artmv1149]

Simply astounding

[@fannishmarcia]

Brilliant fun!

[@TheVineyarder]

I saw this show on Broadway at the Uris 2x

[@richardveerman8377]

just one word superbe !!

[@robertgordon8992]

marvellous

[@danlwarren]

This is forever burned into my brain as one of the most insanely virtuosic vocal performances I've ever seen.

[@engineeringartist4801]

Magnifico! Chills up my spine.

[@turtlex5994]

Super.

[@Paul-k2e4h]

Just perfect. And delightful!

[@deborahtorgler7491]

Ah, Linda! What a treasure!

[@leslieelizabeth219]

👌❤️

[@mrchdant]

so much better at rock music

[@randyventresca4152]

Well, then go listen to her sing Heatwave 😏

[@baskingsharkmaximus]

*than rock music

[@baskingsharkmaximus]

Sorry, I was replying to the original comment. So much better "than" rock music. Failed joke @@engineeringartist4801

[@aml1234561]

LR was sublime singing this masterpiece. If you want to hear her singing rock music that’s fine but what a perfect voice for this!

[@molliescrizisbryck797]

​@@engineeringartist4801 They are comparing and staying that this better than rock music
