Theatre review: Treasure Island by the Octagon Theatre, Bolton
The Octagon’s Christmas productions are always something to look forward to and this, as always, was worth the wait. It’s a jolly Roger of a show that will have your feet tapping and your face smiling – so what more could you ask for?
Jack Lord is the headline act as Long John Silver but he is given a run for his money by Ben Simon (Squire Trelawney/Blind Pew) – and endearing performances from one and all mean that, far from shivering your timbers, this show will warm the cockles of your heart. All play their part to give the audience that feelgood factor.
