A new tour of Gilligan's Island: The Musical, based on the popular television series, will officially launch in Clearwater, Florida at The Ruth Eckerd Hall on March 4. The tour continues through May 3, and will play in such cities as Glendora, California, Jacksonville, Florida, Wichita, Kansas, and Olympia, Washington.
The show is directed by Pamela Hall with choreography by Gene Castle, and is written by Lloyd and Sherwood Schwartz and Hope and Laurence Juber. Sherwood Schwartz is the television series' creator.
In the show, Gilligan, The Skipper, Mary Ann, Ginger, The Professor, and The Millionaire and his wife are shipwrecked and trying to get off the island.
