DIXON, CA (MPG) – Dixon Community Theater premiered its comedic production of Robert Louis Stevenson’s swash-buckling classic “Treasure Island” on Oct. 17, Oct. 18 and Oct. 19.

The eventful weekend saw a cast of 27 actors, most of them children from 6 to 16 years old, entertain Dixonites with a tale of adventure, betrayal and laughs a plenty.

Every showing of the play began with an introduction from Dixon Community Theater President Cheryl Sommers where she thanked those who made the production possible, including the stage manager, set crew, lighting and sound technicians, the music director and concessions.

Sommers went on to announce future Dixon Community Theater productions in 2026, such as “Cinderella,” “Young Frankenstein” and a murder mystery event catered to adults.

The “Treasure Island” performance was almost three hours long, having 16 scenes and four original songs written by music director Angie Wolfe.

The show was narrated by Angie Abrew playing Jackie Avery.

The young actors were given a standing ovation as they concluded their performances.

Dixon Community Theater’s next production will be Dixon’s Great Big Little Christmas Show, with performances at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 5 and Dec. 6, and 2 p.m. Dec. 7. The show will be held in Dixon Performing Arts Center, 555 College Way.
