Everybody say aargh! "X" marks the spot in this raucous new musical panto based on the classic by Robert Louis Stevenson. Armed with just a treasure map and her spirit of adventure, young Jamie Hawkins joins Captain Smilenot and the rest of the rabble aboard Ye Old Blowharde as they set sail for a mysterious island. Little do they know, Jamie's mother has boarded the ship as a stowaway and the ship's cook, Long John Silver, has his own questionable plans for the treasure. The crew sings, dances, staggers, and swims their way through a few of the Seven Seas in search of Billy Bones’ riches. Chock-full of hilarity and hijinks, this Treasure Island is for pirates (or pirates at heart) of any age.

Nicole Sipe, Montgomery News

"...a full scale romp...there's plenty for old and young in Treasure Island...let me hear you say ARRRRRGH!"
