Let's face it, I'm going to ask a whole lot of the twenty actors cast in TREASURE ISLAND.

There will be hours and hours of intensive rehearsals--read-throughs, blocking, acting, technical. There is the physical conditioning I will require--weight room and heavy cardio. And vocal rehearsals--standard British dialect. Have I mentioned perfection on the lines? How about care of props and costumes.

I think it's fair to say that the experience that lies before each member of our cast will be unlike anything faces by any J.L. Mann cast in over a decade...maybe ever.

I like to work on a play as if it were my last...as if the future of civilization depended on its outcome. Obviously, it's not that important. Or is it?

What if you took a thrilling experience as a cast member in TREASURE ISLAND with you throughout your life? How might that affect you? How might it's memory affect others you know?

Audition only if you are willing to commit to one of the most thrilling adventures of your life. To expect less, isn't worth it.
