Treasure Island

TREASURE ISLAND
Adapted by Todd Espeland from Robert Louis Stevenson

An adaptation of the classic novel Treasure Island, this production features Jim Hawkins, a courageous youth who dreams of adventure outside of the Benbow Inn.  The closest adventures he gets are the seafaring tales from one of the Inn's guests, Billie Bones.  One fateful evening, Bones is given the Black Spot, a pirate death sentence.  Seizing his moment, Jim escapes with a treasure map that belonged to Bones amid a pirate brawl in the Inn.  Then Jim gathers a crew and sets sail for Treasure Island!  Only this crew of "honest sailors" seems to be less than trustworthy.  Perhaps even a little... scurvy?

Please Note: There will be use of theatrical fog.

Orlando

ORLANDO
Adapted by Sarah Ruhl from Virginia Woolf

In Sarah Ruhl's vibrant adaptation of Virginia Woolf's classic novel, we witness a young nobleman of the 16th-century journey through time and go through the pangs of love and heartbreak, delve into his poetic imagination, and dream of adventures beyond the court of London.  On a fateful night, two hundred years later, Orlando wakes up as a woman!       

What begins as a story about a naive and ambitious young man transitions into an exploration of time, history, and the paths we navigate in this journey we call life.  Every person we encounter informs the story of our lives; Woolf seemed intent on asking— what if that life lasted for four hundred years?  Who would we be? 

Please Note: There will be use of theatrical fog and strobe effects.
