The Panther Players want to welcome you back from fall break with an informational meeting about TREASURE ISLAND! Based on the masterful adventure novel by Robert Louis Stevenson, TREASURE ISLAND is a stunning yarn of piracy on the tropical seas. At the center of it all are Jim Hawkins, a 14-year-old boy who longs for adventure, and the infamous Long John Silver, who is a complex study of good and evil, perhaps the most famous hero-villain of all time. Silver is an unscrupulous buccaneer-rogue whose greedy quest for gold, coupled with his affection for Jim, cannot help but win the heart of every soul who has ever longed for treasure and adventure. This show is a combination of humor, classic drama, and plenty of stage combat. You don't want to miss out on this! Meet us tomorrow, Wednesday, October 14th at 3:30 in the auditorium for all of the info! Contact Mrs. Jackson or Mr. Greer with questions!

Gamers Club will meet this Friday in 146N.
