University of Montana to Stage TREASURE ISLAND This Fall

The University of Montana is pleased to present TREASURE ISLAND, the timeless novel of honor among thieves, brought to vivid life on stage by one of America's great contemporary playwrights. TREASURE ISLAND runs in the Montana Theatre of the Performing Arts and Radio/Television Center on campus November 24, November 27-29, and December 1-5, 2015.

TREASURE ISLAND is an adventure of the first order. This gripping adaptation of the beloved classic features humor, heart and hubris as it chronicles charming rogue Long John Silver's epic quest to unearth the riches hidden on Skeleton Island. An unforgettable, motley crew of characters -- both upstanding and nefarious -- cross paths with Jim Hawkins as he embarks on an escapade that tests his courage, his values, his loyalties, and even his very life. TREASURE ISLAND is a thrilling theatrical voyage for the whole family not to be missed!
