Long John Silver returns to Bristol

BRISTOL Old Vic Theatre School students return to the Redgrave Theatre in Clifton for their Christmas show, Treasure Island, on from 23rd to 30th November.

Always popular in Bristol, where Robert Louis Stevenson is said to have written the original novel at the Llandogger Trow, this re-imagining by Bryony Lavery follows the adventures of the young Jim Hawkins as he faces off against the infamous Long John Silver in this epic tale of buried treasure and high-seas hijinks. It promises festive fun for all the family.
