Akin to such classic stories as Peter Pan and Treasure Island, Arthur Ransome's much beloved Swallows and Amazons will delight children and adults alike. When John, Susan, Titty and Roger are granted their wish to camp on an island, they eagerly look forward to a summer full of adventure and fun. Fueled by their imagination and a desire for new experiences, they set sail in their trusty boat, Swallow. When they meet Nancy & Peggy, the self-proclaimed Amazon pirates, and the cantankerous Captain Flint, their adventure turns in an entirely new and exciting direction. This Canadian premier promises to be an exciting theatre experience for adventurers of all ages.
