Purchase Tickets

A young orphan is shipped off to a distant island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. He knows nothing of the mysterious trunk in the captain’s cabin. At sea, the boys are discovered by a precocious young girl named Molly, a Starcatcher-in-training who realizes that the trunk’s cargo is starstuff, a powerful substance that must never fall into the wrong hands. When pirates take over the ship - the journey quickly becomes a thrilling adventure.
