| Robinson Crusoe - No Man Is An Island by Geoff Bamber |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 0. Minimum Female roles = 0. Minimum total with doubling = 15. Minimum total without doubling = 16. No chorus. Most characters are nominally male, however that is merely to indicate a foolhardy disposition, and should not prevent casting against type! Whilst there is no formal chorus, non-speaking warriors and Naval Ratings (strong silent types) could be added. |
| Run Time | Around 40 minutes. [Estimated!] |
| Music | None. |
| Style | The author bills this as a pantomime, and it certainly has some pantomime elements, but it lacks a formal panto structure. Anyway, it's a comedy for kids in one act (and a single set). |
| Synopsis | It is the year 1751 and Robinson Crusoe, eager to escape the prospect of becoming a schoolteacher, sets out for a life of adventure at sea. The adventure sees him shipwrecked on an apparently deserted island. But he finds that he is not alone as he encounters a less than completely loyal Friday, hostile natives, survivors from another wreck and a trio of unprincipled pirates on the trail of royal treasure. |
