More than 70 youngsters aged 4-13 will take to the Leighton Buzzard Theatre stage this week with Leighton Buzzard Children’s Theatre’s latest production Treasure Island The Musical.
Based on the Robert Louis Stevenson novel, the casts of pirates, sailors, parrots, islanders and phantoms go in search of buried treasure with a mutiny ahead led by Long John Silver.
When young Jim Hawkins stumbles across Billy Bones’ treasure map he embarks on the thrilling adventure he has always dreamed of featuring pirates, a beach party, Captain Flint and his ghostly crew and much more.
Suitable for all the family, this musical is fully costumed and choreographed.
Performances are on Thursday, Friday and Saturday (June 20-22) at 7pm, with a 2pm matinee on Saturday too.
A special abridged version introducing the youngest actors aged 4-7 will be included at 5pm on the Saturday.
The performances will be aid of Macmillan Cancer Support, as the children’s theatre hopes to add to the total of more than £50,000 raised in the last 17 years.
