By Alexandre Dumas
Adapted and directed by Theresa Heskins
A spirited country boy arrives in the big city with big dreams
A streetwise city girl spies her chance to steal the greatest prize of all
When d’Artagnan arrives in Paris with hopes of joining the Royal guard, he soon discovers he’ll need all of his courage to help the legendary Musketeers – Athos, Porthos and Aramis – defeat a cunning secret agent and their villainous employer.
Can the four friends discover who the mysterious spy is and defend the King and Queen from treachery before it’s too late?
A story about friendship, courage and doing what is right, The Three Musketeers is one of the greatest adventure stories ever told! Brought to life in the New Vic’s spectacular style, this show will be filled with fast-paced action, swashbuckling adventure, music and lots of fun. A perfect festive treat for all ages!
