Treasure Island

  • Show Information

Devon favourites Le Navet Bete return to the Northcott with their swashbuckling smash-hit comedy for all the family: Treasure Island!

Featuring dastardly pirates, tropical islands and a mermaid you’ll never forget, set sail on the Jolly Todger with Jim Lad, Long John Silver and a whole host of other characters for a hilarious voyage across the seas. But will they get there in one piece? Is everyone who they say they are? And does ‘X’ really mark the spot?

Le Navet Bete (The Three Musketeers, Dracula: The Bloody Truth) are a multi-award-winning physical comedy company based in Devon. Joining forces with one of UK theatre’s best comedy writers and directors John Nicholson (Peepolykus, BBC Radio 4), the company of four play out Robert Louis Stevenson’s legendary tale as you’ve NEVER seen it before!
