The Three Musketeers

Finally a play for boys! This is a vigorous and swashbuckling adaptation of Alexandre Dumas’ novel by the same title. We have even included some old fashioned swordfighting scenes! Your audiences will love this play but not as much as your cast! It is great fun while preserving the literacy and noble intent of the story and characters. For those of you with an older cast of children, please click here to find out about our Teens adaptation of the same play. We have included nearly eighty illustrations by Maurice Leloir, the famous French artist who was commissioned to illustrate Dumas’ first edition of The Three Musketeers. These illustrations have been used as title pages, scene dividers and scene illustrators. The children will love them!

Story summary: The time is 1625 - an age of high adventure, romance and brave deeds. The place is Paris. Our story, set during the reign of Louis XIII of France and Cardinal Richelieu, tells the true tale of Charles de Batz d’Artagnan - a young nobleman who leaves his country estate in Gascony at the age of nineteen to join the King’s Musketeers. His swashbuckling soul, animated by honor, loyalty and shrewd intelligence, courts perilous adventures and romantic intrigues. Through them all, and with his valiant companions-in-arms, Athos, Porthos and Aramis, he outsmarts evil and pierces to the heart of goodness.

Cast: 13 male roles (10 principal and 3 minor); 4 female principal roles. Optional 12 “extras”.
