Step through an enchanted wardrobe and embark on an epic quest where good triumphs over evil. It’s a holiday treat for the whole family!
The White Witch has trapped Narnia in a perpetual state of winter with no hope of Christmas. But all that changes when four siblings venture through a mysterious wardrobe and enter this land of talking animals, charming fauns, giants, and dwarves. Alongside Aslan the Great Lion, the children courageously battle the forces of evil and discover that Love is the deepest magic of all. Join Peter and Lucy for a magical adventure, as they take you on a journey into the magical land of Narnia. C.S. Lewis’s timeless story invites us into a world of wonder, where we witness the battle between good and evil, and the discovery of courage, friendship, and hope.
Carousel Theatre is thrilled to present Kaleidoscope Theatre’s inventive and highly theatrical adaptation of C.S. Lewis’s classic. It’s a production that is sure to delight children and adults alike.
From Co-Artistic & Managing Directors Jennica Grienke and Dave Deveau: “When we first saw this whimsical production last year, we knew we had to bring it to our dedicated Carousel audiences just in time for the holiday season. It has such heart and optimism, and beautiful, unexpected magic. Plus we love stories that centre young people’s bravery in the face of danger – this really is a story for our times!”
Kaleidoscope Theatre Executive and Artistic Director Pat Rundell says: “Our production … brings together vivid storytelling, captivating performances, and stunning visual design to transport audiences into the wintry realm of Narnia. It’s a story of bravery, sacrifice, and the power of belief, reminding us of the importance of standing up for what’s right and finding strength in unexpected places … Through the eyes of Lucy and Peter, we are reminded that no matter the challenges we face, hope and courage can lead us to a better world.” The show is directed by Pat Rundell and stars Shea O’Connor and Dawson Rutledge.
