KEN LUDWIG'S THE THREE MUSKETEERS
Civic Youth Theatre Play
Based on the timeless swashbuckler by Alexandre Dumas, a tale of heroism, treachery, close escapes, and above all, honor. The story, set in 1625, begins with D'Artagnan, who sets off for Paris in search of adventure. Along with D'Artagnan goes Sabine, his sister, the quintessential tomboy. Sent with D'Artagnan to attend a convent school in Paris, she poses as a young man - D'Artagnan's servant - and quickly becomes entangled in her brother's adventures.
Our Civic Youth Theatre program serves as an introduction to theatre as an art form for many of our young patrons. Students involved in a production learn very quickly that it takes a lot of hard work to put on a show. As they memorize lines, paint scenery and collect props, they are also building friendships and develop self-confidence that will last them a lifetime.
RATING: THE WHOLE FAMILY
"In short, about as much fun as you would expect, and then a little more."
