Child Actors Make Treasure Island Come Alive at the Lodge
MT 43 News Staff
Now is the time to scrunch down in your seat and enjoy an evening of adventure of buccaneers and buried gold as told by the summer junior theater production Treasure Island. Thirteen enthusiastic players will hone their theater skills in a story that is sure to please any age.
The novel Treasure Island, written by Robert Louis Stevenson, began in 1881 as a series in a children’s magazine under the title Treasure Island or the Munity of the Hispaniola. The story sets scenes about pirates on deserted islands, treasure maps and one-legged seamen with parrots perched on their shoulders.
The production is planned for Friday, August 18 and Saturday 19, 6:00pm both nights at the air-conditioned auditorium of the Lodge at 131 So. Cedar Street in Townsend.
Broadwater Community Theater members direct and produce the play along with special sponsors Broadwater County Retired Teachers Group. Townsend’s Reading Leaves Book Store and The Bird’s Nest at its new location on Pine Street will be selling the $10 tickets.
