 Rehearsals are underway for Festival Theatre’s first Youth and Family Series show of 2016, Treasure Island.  The cast, which features 11 local youth actors alongside a guest artist, has been working hard to get the show ready for the March 11th opening performance.  Directed by Interim Artistic Director Andrew Bradford Benson, Treasure Island follows the story of Jim Hawkins and his journey through pirates and peril to find buried treasure.

 "This script perfectly walks the line between a danger adventure story and a downright silly, good time in the theatre. I think that people of all ages will enjoy watching these youth as they take to the sea to find buried treasure," shared Director Andrew Bradford Benson, "The best part about working with the youth in this cast is their willingness to try goofy things and move outside of their comfort zones. I constantly find myself in spurts of laughter when they really nail a moment in the script." 

 The youth cast has been incredible to work with for Abi Leveille, the guest artist who is playing Auntie Nan in the show, “They’re such a fun group to work with.  Rehearsals are a riot and the show just gets better with each day.  These youth are so dedicated to their work, I can’t wait for everyone to see all their hard work pay off.”
​

 Preview night is Tuesday, March 10th at 7:30 PM.

Tickets are $13.50 for adults and $8.50 for students (ages 5-25) and can be purchased at FestivalTheatre.org, emailing 
festivaltheatreboxoffice@gmail.com or by calling the box office at 715-483-3387.  Festival Theatre has been transplanted to the Franklin Square Black Box, 125 N. Washington Street, St. Croix Falls WI. across the street from Tangen Drug Store
