Adventures abound. Jim shows pluck and courage. Long John Silver a terrific character. Captain Smollett all you'd want in a captain. Malaria, mutiny, marooned Thom Gunn, the Hispaniola piloted by Jim. Knives flying through the air. Israel Hands dead of gunshot and of drowning--at the hands of Jim. One more wonderful hour left. Audible reader is terrific, so good I (almost) don't want to read on my own.
PBS performance during pandemic. No live audience, filmed in a warehouse. Entire play was good, but the standout was Jessie Buckley as Juliet. Great performance.
