Director Lisa Thomas introduces the cast for Treasure Island, an adapted family favourite which premiered at the National Theatre, coming up at SLT this Summer.

I'm delighted to announce this cast for Treasure Island which will be the summer show for 2026. A large number of excellent people auditioned and some choices were very difficult indeed. I’m very much looking forward to working with everyone and hopefully producing a scintillating show.
