    My Imaginary Pirate

    My Imaginary Pirate

    June 8th - July 9th

    By Catherine Bush

    Jesse McCall is having trouble making friends at his new school, but in spite of that, Jesse isn’t lonely—he’s too busy going on adventures with his imaginary pirate, the Terrible One-Eyed Jack. Jesse and One-Eyed Jack are determined to find buried treasure, but they run into trouble along the way when an outlaw pirate, Red Legs Ricky, steals their treasure map! A high-seas adventure ensues, and Jesse soon discovers that friendship is the greatest treasure of all.

    Barter Theatre is partially funded by:

    This project was supported [in part] by the Virginia Commission for the Arts, which receives support from the Virginia General Assembly and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
