“The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” show at the library!
Coming to the Aston Library — Tuesday November 17, 2015 at 5PM, The Hampstead Stage Company from New Hampshire will present a live-action dramatization of “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” based on the classic by C.S. Lewis!
“This is the first installment in their series of adaptations of the beloved Narnia saga by C.S. Lewis. Step with them through the door of an old wardrobe and enter a snowy world laced with fantasy and wonder. There you will meet quite the cast of magical creatures as you accompany two intelligent and imaginative children, Lucy and Edmund, on their adventures. This delightful story is entertainment for the whole family, while still providing insight about the emotional climate of childhood during World War II. We recommend this play for ages 5+.” (Hampstead Stage Company) ~ http://www.hampsteadstage.org
Open to the public ~ No registration required ~ Held in the Gym
