of life as a stage play with

sophisticated production.

William Golding’s 20th-century classic Lord of the Flies explodes onto the
stage in a remarkable production direct from London’s award-winning
Regent’s Park Theatre.
When a group of schoolboys survive a catastrophic plane crash, what
starts as a desert island adventure quickly descends into a struggle for
survival in a darkly sinister world of superstition and immorality. Playing to
capacity audiences during its original run, this acclaimed production is
guaranteed to grip from start to finish.
