The third scene found us on Treasure Island where Bluebeard and his crew were retired and living in peace and relaxation.
Roger's crew (including Peaches) were trying to figure out where Long John Sliver's treasure was buried.
Peaches went over and found a painting of Bluebeard with a message on the back.
The whole play all the crews were sending messages in bottles about the exploits of their Captains even though they weren't true.
Bluebeard was trying to make people think he was still out there pillaging, and Peanut's crew was trying to build up the legend of The Pirate Queen.
Roger's crew heard someone coming and hid. It turned out to be Sarah"s (Peanut's) parents. Bug's mother-in-law played Peanut's mother, Lady Huffington! They got dropped off on this "deserted" island so they wouldn't be in danger when Bluebeard was captured, not knowing that he was actually on the island.
Roger and crew turned this to their advantage and took them hostage.
They were so funny!
Roger sent a message off in a bottle to Lady Sarah, telling her that he had captured her parents.
She and her crew found the island next.
But they didn't know that they were on Treasure Island, and they didn't know about her parents at this point.
Here is where they found out they had been captured.
Long John came out.
And had a sword fight with Sarah.
They did such a good job!
This was one of my favorite scenes. It was SO funny. Peanut told him she was going to cut out and roast his liver (he said he didn't have one) or anything he had left if he didn't tell them where Treasure Island was.
He gave them bogus directions to a different island.
And they believed him.
And set off for Treasure Island.
More tomorrow!
