Synopsis: This epic full-length romp, suitable for a family audience, captures the spirit of Dumas' classic without slavishly lifting it line by line. It follows D'Artagnan's quest to become a musketeer against the background of royalist and religious plotting and power struggles -- with more than a few laughs on the way. Whilst playable by 3 f and 8 m, there is scope to use more actors.
