It’s pirate ships and salty old sea dogs for Summer 2020 in Quantam Theatre’s swashbuckling new adaption of the classic pirate adventure, Treasure Island.
From the moment young Jim Hawkins stumbles upon a treasure map at the Admiral Benbow Inn, he finds himself embroiled in the murky underworld of pirates – and soon he is on the high seas in search of the pirate hoard. Once aboard the Hispaniola, Jim becomes only too aware that he is not the only one who knows of the map’s existence.
Bursting with buccaneers, brouhaha and dastardly double dealing, Michael Whitmore’s lively adaptation delivers an action-packed adventure for the whole family.
You are welcome to bring a picnic but no glassware is permitted, no dogs are allowed to attend the event and smoking is restricted to designated areas.
