Treasure Island - About the Show
Will you risk everything for gold? Or is some treasure worth more than money?
Jim Hawkins is growing up in the salt-aired historic harbour town of Watchet on the coast of West Somerset, but wants more from life than one day becoming the owner of the family B&B.
The arrival of a mysterious sailor and the treasure map he brings with him turns Jim's ordinary world upside down. Home comforts are soon a distant memory as Jim is aboard a ship bound for who knows where in search of stolen gold, sailing alongside a crew of colourful rogues, brave adventurers, and one utterly unforgettable, silver-tongued pirate: Long John Silver.
Digging for buried treasure brings many things to the surface and Jim must face a question that no map can answer.
