Synopsis:
A swashbuckling adventure set in and around the royal court of France, adapted from the novel by Alexandre Dumas. Suitable for all ages. Set in the 1620s, a young swordsman comes to Paris, seeking to join the Royal guards;. Initially refused, but determined to prove his worth and loyalty, he leads in thwarting plots against the King and Queen, by the King's chief advisor; Cardinal Richelieu, while making friends with three of the Kings Musketeers, in the process. With beautiful costuming, dramatic action scenes, and a fast moving story, performed by a team of professional actors aged 11 – 65 from around south Devon, and being filmed for TV broadcast in the USA, this is a production not to be missed.

ABOUT THE SOUTH DEVON PLAYERS:
The South Devon Players Theatre & Film Company i
The South Devon Players Theatre & film Company
We are an award winning, ambitious non-profit, theatre & film production team, with our own actors agency, from the beautiful fishing port of Brixham; Devon (in South West England). The South Devon Players is a team of dedicated, career-orientated performers, of all ages, who are working on creating careers in theatre and film. We always welcome new members, who share our ethos, and who, regardless of previous experience, want to join a lively, friendly, hardworking team of performers, hone old skills & develop new ones, and create high quality new stage and film productions. We perform theatre shows in Brixham, around Torbay, and South Devon, based on historical events, classical stories and mythology. We also make period drama films and web-series productions, around Devon and Cornwall, which has become a large percentage of our annual projects. We run a casting agency for experienced, vetted, local actors as well, as a service to people in the local area. This is fee-free . Any funds raised by the agency service go back into our productions and projects. The South Devon Players was founded in late 2005 by two Brixham-based performers who were seeking performance opportunities in the Southwest, and performed our first production in the summer of 2006. Since then we have gone from strength to strength, and are now growing rapidly, with awards won and a rapidly increasing member and audience base.
