The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe at Adventure Theatre MTC

DC Theater Arts - Recommended

"...Since its publication in 1950, C.S. Lewis' fantasy novel The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe has captured the imaginations of children (and adults) and inspired adaptations for TV, film, radio, and stage. Most of these adaptations (including Imagination Stage's Helen Hayes Award-winning production from 2012, remounted in 2019) feature a large cast and a lengthy run time to bring Lewis' story to life. By contrast, Adventure Theatre MTC's current production-reprising its 2016 run-tackles the story in one act, with two actors and a minimalist set and props."

MD Theatre Guide - Recommended

"...This story is about the journey to Narnia and, by having just two actors and a minimalist set, it focuses the attention on the action. That, for a younger audience who may not have seen the movie or read the original book, works well for an exciting and wonder-filled production."
