This production brings all of C.S. Lewis’ classic adventures in the land of Narnia to life!  Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy wander through an old wardrobe to meet old Mr. Tumnus, Aslan the Lion and the dreadful White Witch.  A triumph of love, faith and courage and a battle between good and evil

 

Madeline and the Gypsies

Saturdays at 1:00 PM, Sundays at 1:00 PM and 3:30 PM

“In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines, live twelve little girls in two straight lines.”  Everyone delights in the beautiful world of Madeline.  In her most exciting adventure of all, she joins Pepito and the zany gypsy carnival.  A play and a circus in one show.

 

Alice in Wonderland’s Tea Party

September 22 – October 14

Saturdays at 1:00 PM, Sundays at 1:00 PM and 3:30 PM

Alice sits down to tea with the Mad Hatter, the March Hare and the Dormouse … right?  WRONG!  In this zany interpretation of Alice in Wonderland, the Queen of Hearts can’t find Alice to play croquet, but does run into Little Bo Peep who somehow has managed to end up in Wonderland by mistake.  Somehow it all works out in the end with the help of members from the audience.  A chance for kinds to become instant actors!
