The Admirable Crichton play

Dazzling Show for Whole Family
Music, action, comedy, and an upside down look at society.
From J. M. Barrie, the creator of Peter Pan, this comedy explores English class hierarchy at the end of the Victorian era. A system where a person's place is determined by birth and not by ability is tossed aside when a group of British aristocrats are suddenly stranded on a desert island. Crichton the butler becomes the leader of the group.
