★★★★ ‘Astonishing. A remarkable take on Stevenson’s classic.’ The Observer

Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic adventure of mutiny, money and murder is brought to life on the Olivier stage in a thrilling new adaptation by Bryony Lavery.

It’s a dark and stormy night. The stars are out. Jim, the inn-keeper’s granddaughter, opens the door to a terrifying stranger. At the old sailor’s feet sits a huge sea-chest, full of secrets. Jim invites him in – and her dangerous voyage begins.

Bryony Lavery’s adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s famous tale​​​​​​​ of swashbuckling adventure is suitable to adults and children alike in Polly Findlay’s captivating production.
