Treasure Island – Late Show
Leave the kids at home for a festive night of live music, theatre and comedy
Written and directed by Paul Smith
Chosen by You
Wannabe pirate Jim Hawkins-Breadcake is out for adventure, be it sailing the seven seas or hammering it along the Humber. Problem is, he doesn’t have a ship, a map, or a crew of properly gnarly pirates.
But all that is about to change, when veteran sailor Bill Bones stumbles into the The Sunken Poopdeck inn to kickstart the voyage of a lifetime.
Can Jim find Captain Flint’s long-lost treasure and finally graduate to fully-fledged, ferocious pirate? Or will he be forced to walk the plank by Long John Silver and his gang of rambunctious rogues and rapscallions?
Find out in Hull’s alternative Christmas night out, featuring live music and raucous comedy from the award-winning Middle Child.
First performed in 2011, Middle Child’s alternative panto is a homegrown hit, with a different story chosen every year by our audience.
Catch us down Humber Street this Christmas to jump aboard and kickstart a swashbuckling new tradition.
