National Theatre’s ‘Treasure Island’ shows at the Ross

The Mary Riepma Ross Media Arts Center presents The National Theatre’s production of “Treasure Island,” broadcast live from London at 7 p.m. Jan. 22 with an encore presentation at 3 p.m. Jan. 25.

Robert Louis Stevenson’s story of murder, money and mutiny is brought to life in a thrilling new stage adaptation by Bryony Lavery. It’s a dark, stormy night and 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. The production is suitable for kids 10 years or older.

“National Theatre Live” is an initiative to broadcast live performances of plays to cinema screens worldwide. Broadcasts in the first season were watched by more than 165,000 people on 320 screens in 22 countries. The broadcasts will also feature behind-the-scenes footage and interviews with artists.
