Directed by Don Bernardo

Commissioned by the world famous Bristol Old Vic, it tells the story of a brother and sister, d’Artagnan and Sabine, who sets off for Paris in search of adventure.  D’Artagnan hopes to join the valiant King’s Musketeers.  Sabine, meanwhile, is being sent to a convent school, but decides quickly that it’s not for her.  She’d rather fight by her brother’s side.  Cardinal Richelieu has different plans for both of them, but with their new best friends, Athos, Porthos and Aramis by their sides, they save the day for king and country.

Many great roles for both men and women!
