Silver & Gold
OVERVIEW
LONG JOHN SILVER is a legend in his own lifetime.
Treacherous. Murderous. Infamous. PIRATICAL.
The only problem is, he's not happy with the legend and he'll do anything to set the record straight, even at the cost of his very last breath.
Adapted and performed by award-winning actor James Hyland, SILVER & GOLD is a powerful exploration of the ambiguity of morality that will captivate both adults and children alike.

PRESS QUOTES
"Pure Gold... What I really enjoy about watching this actor is his intensity – the audience is on the edge of their seats, never quite sure what might happen next. We as audience took the part of the crew, and I really felt as if I was on that ship!... Hyland brought such emotion and humour to the performance, and I felt a lot of empathy for the 'gentleman pirate' who was so mis-represented in ‘that book’. We were thoroughly entertained!"
~Virginia Betts, PUBLISHED AUTHOR & ENGLISH TUTOR
"Silver & Gold is a definite must see show. Hyland's brash and comedic character brings a fascinating story to life for all to enjoy. A masterpiece in its entirety."
