Robert Louis Stevenson’s story of murder, money and mutiny is brought to life in a thrilling new stage adaptation by Bryony Lavery, broadcast live from the National Theatre. It’s a dark, stormy night. 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. According to Michael Billington: Bryony Lavery’s new adaptation and Polly Findlay’s production … redress the gender balance while preserving the narrative’s excitement. At the same time, Lizzie Clachan’s design offers the most imaginative use of the Olivier’s technical resources we have seen in a long time.
