LOFT Ensemble to Stage Arthur M. Jolly's LONG JOAN SILVER This February
LOFT Ensemble announces a production of Arthur M. Jolly's Long Joan Silver. Performances begin with opening night February 17th at 8 pm.
The classic adventure story of buried treasure pursued by a one legged pirate is reimagined with offbeat farce, breathtaking fights and a dramatic core that explores discrimination, privilege and greed. Captain Joan Silver and her all-female pirate crew are front and center during the fateful voyage of the Hispaniola and the clash with young Jim Hawkins, Squire Trelawney, Doctor Livesy and the domineering Captain Smollett. Treasure will be found, alliances betrayed, and swords will fly when the Jolly Roger is raised!
