Step through the wardrobe of Narnia, a frozen world full of magic, adventure, and Turkish delight. In this highly imaginative adaptation of C.S. Lewis’ classic tale, two actors bring four siblings, the noble lion Aslan, The White Witch, and the entire kingdom locked in winter to life onstage. Join Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie on a daring journey to defeat the White Witch and break her curse on Narnia. Full of theatrical magic and boundless creativity, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe invites you to shine your light, radiate kindness, and watch the darkness melt away.
