A swashbuckling adventure for children and their grown ups! Pirate Bonnie is looking for treasure – but no ordinary treasure, for she is no ordinary Pirate. The treasures she seeks are stories, the long-lost stories of legendary Pirates.
“A fantastic hook into pirate story writing. It also developed vocabulary understanding.” Year 2 Teacher, Ingram Road Primary School
“The best show I’ve been to with the kids!” Audience member, Carriageworks Theatre
Bonnie invites you to step on board, feel the rush of wind in the sails as she recounts the tales and sings to songs of pirates of old. She was born to rule the waves and hunt for treasure but on this latest quest, she knows she must write her own legend; The Adventures of Pirate Bonnie
