Older kids loved the story and the singing. They stayed for the entire program. Kids were very excited to see Kermit and Miss Piggy, some perennial favorites. It was too scary for the younger ones.
The characters, both humans and puppets, interact well together and appeal to children. The introduction of the crew on-board ship is priceless. The story jumps around and it at times scary for younger kids. A little slow.
Robert Louis Stevenson's classic adventure takes a new twist. Jim Hawkins inherits a pirate's treasure map, hires a ship with Captain Smollett (Kermit) and the evil Long John Silver (Tim Curry). Miss Piggy plays Benjamina Gunn, dressed to kill.
