Treasure Island
02 - 10 Aug - Capitol Theatre
Presented by Tamworth Dramatic Society
By Bryony Lavery
Not one of us must breathe a word of what we've found
It's a dark and stormy night. Jim, the inn-keeper's granddaughter, opens the door to a terrifying stranger. At the old sailor's feet sits a huge sea-chest, full of secrets. Jim invites him in - and her dangerous voyage begins.
Based on Robert Louis Stevenson's classic story of murder, money and mutiny, Tamworth Dramatic Society invites you to join Jim Hawkins and the crew of the Hispaniola on one of the greatest adventures of all time, Treasure Island!
When the old Pirate, Billy Bones, and the treasure map he has stolen from his old shipmates, arrive at the quiet Benbow Inn, Jim Hawkins, Squire Trelawney and Dr Livsey are set on an incredible journey into the unknown. Along the way, Jim and her companions will have to face overwhelming odds, and she’ll have to use all the cunning she can muster to find the treasure, save her friends… and make it home again!
In this thrilling adaptation by Bryony Lavery, which keeps alive the wit and excitement of the book, Jim becomes a girl rebelling against gender roles in her amazing coming of age journey. A tribute to the wit, honour and resourcefulness of children. Treasure Island is an adventure not to be missed!
....And one more thing! Keep a weather eye for a seafaring man with one leg!
