or The Slave of Duty
An opera in two acts by Gilbert and Sullivan
Starring Keith Michell, Peter Allen, Alexander Oliver, Gillian Knight, Janis Kelly

Apprentice pirate Frederic is 21 and freed from his pirate indentures. Being a slave to duty, he must now betray his pirate comrades to the law. But Frederic was born on 29 February, leap year day, and his pirate contract states he is indentured until his 21st birthday. By that reckoning he is only five, and legally bound to be a pirate for another 63 years!
