“Masters of their craft…this is some serious, good old laugh-out-loud fun and should not be missed.”

Escape to Treasure Island with Le Navet Bete and their swashbuckling, smash-hit comedy for all the family!
Featuring dastardly pirates, tropical islands and a mermaid you’ll never forget, set sail on the Jolly Todger with Jim Lad, Long John Silver and a whole host of other characters for a hilarious voyage across the high seas. But will they get there in once piece? Is everyone who they say they are? And does ‘X’ really mark the spot?
Le Navet Bete (The Three Musketeers: A Comedy Adventure, Dracula: The Bloody Truth) are a multi award-winning physical comedy company based in Devon. Joining forces with one of UK theatre’s best comedy writers and directors, John Nicholson, (Peepolykus, BBC Radio 4), the company of four play our Robert Louis Stevenson’s legendary tale as you’ve NEVER seen it before!
This show was originally a Le Navet Bete and Barbican Theatre Plymouth co-production.
Treasure Island was first performed on Thursday 12th December 2019 at the Athenaeum Theatre, Plymouth, Devon, UK (and subsequently over Christmas 2020 at the Exeter Northcott Theatre and further UK national touring).
