Recommended for Students in Kindergarten – 6th grade
A swashbuckling adventure based on the classic novel by Robert Louis Stevenson, following a young boy and his hunt for a secret treasure buried on a mysterious far away island. Filled with treacherous turns, difficult choices, and a crew of daring pirates not far behind him, this story exemplifies bravery, honesty, and reminds us that there are more valuable things in this world than jewels and gold.

In addition to the performance, a workshop with students is available and is designed to fit into a class period. Workshops focus on topics relevant to the production and enhance the students’ learning experience through the exploration of acting, text analysis, and character development. Workshops are perfect for theater classes or english classes looking for a more in-depth experience! Workshops can accommodate up to 30 participants, may require a separate location (depending upon the performance space), and are available at an additional cost of $175 per workshop. Please note: At this time no extra Covid safety precautions are being taken (i.e masking, distancing). In the event that this changes we will notify schools of any additional safety measures and allow for refunds if circumstances no longer suit. Please contact tours@idahoshakespeare.org with any workshop questions.
