A one night only staged reading
Jim Hawkins longs for adventure, unlike the dull life his father (RIP) led. And living at the Admiral Benbow Inn with his mom and the other patrons just isn’t what the kid’s looking for. That is until Billy Bones, a former mate for the nefarious Captain Flint, arrives at the Inn with some sea shanties, tall tales, and a treasure map that’s going to change Jim’s humble life forever.
Through a perilous series of events, Jim finds himself aboard the Hispaniola, a sailing ship featuring an interesting crew (who are more then likely probably actually pirates. Uh oh).
Map in hand, they set course for the mythical Treasure Island- but all is not what it seems, especially when it comes to Jim’s new friend, the ship’s sea cook, Long John Silver- is he a father figure or a frightening foe? It’s not enough to follow X to the treasure, Jim has got to make it out alive- after all, dead men tell no tales.
Join us for a swashbuckling, hilarious, and heartrending high seas adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic novel, adapted by the award winning James Cougar Canfield (previous work’s include THE SECRET GARDEN, THE CHRISTMAS CAROL: A QUEER FANTASIA, THE WONDERFUL WIZARD OF OZ and DRACULA: BLOOD & GLITTER), that’ll be unlike any boat ride you’ve ever been on.
