Treasure Island
2023
Pirates! Parrots! Peglegs!
What more could you want in a rollicking tale of high adventure on the high seas?
Oh yes, of course… buried treasure! And lots of it!
When a cantankerous old sailor named Billy Bones comes to stay at her mum’s inn, young Ginevra Hawkins, ‘Ginny’ to her good friends and ‘Gin’ to her best friends, knows something strange is afoot. Why does he make her keep a lookout for, “a one-legged seafaring man” and why is he so paranoid about a “black spot”?
After a posse of pirates attack the inn looking for Billy, Gin and her mum make a hasty escape with a mysterious map from his sea chest. A map of an island where the infamous pirate Captain Flint hid his treasure.
And so, the expedition of a lifetime begins!
Surrounded by a dubious crew of dodgy double-crossers, Ginny must use all her wits to avoid the plank and put some ‘pieces of eight’ in the bank.
Featuring more crazy characters and sea-shanties than ever before, this hilarious and interactive adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic adventure novel ‘Treasure Island’ will have your students (and teachers) laughing right through, and of course we'll provide resources for teachers to follow up in the classroom.
