A traveling theatre group gets ready to
present their play, when one of their actors is
murdered. The audience helps determine
which one of the cast members is the culprit.
At the end, the audience votes for who they
think the murderer is; whoever gets the most
votes is the confessed killer. The play is
written with five different endings - the cast
member who gets the votes goes into the
ending tailored especially for him/her.

Based on the masterful adventure novel by
Robert Louis Stevenson, Treasure Island is
a stunning yarn of piracy on the tropical
seas. It begins at an inn on the Devon
coast of England in 1775 and quickly
becomes an unforgettable tale of treachery
and mayhem featuring a host of legendary
swashbucklers including the dangerous
Billy Bones (played unforgettably in the
movies by Lionel Barrymore), the sinister
two-timing Israel Hands, the brassy woman
pirate Anne Bonney, and the hideous form
of evil incarnate, Blind Pew. At the center
of it all are Jim Hawkins, a 14-year-old boy
who longs for adventure, and the infamous
Long John Silver, who is a complex study
of good and evil, perhaps the most famous
hero-villain of all time. Silver is an
unscrupulous buccaneer-rogue whose
greedy quest for gold, coupled with his
affection for Jim, cannot help but win the
heart of every soul who has ever longed for
romance, treasure and adventure. The play
had its world premiere in May 2007 at the
Alley Theatre in a production directed by
Gregory Boyd and designed by Eugene
Lee and Constance Hoffman.
