Lipscomb’s theatre department is showcasing C.S. Lewis’ classic play The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe April 20-23 in the Collins Auditorium.

The play will serve as the Spring Children’s Theatre production on Easter weekend.

Set in the 1940s during World War II, the show follows four children– Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy Pevensie– who escape their mundane world after the discovery of a magic wardrobe. Entering the wardrobe leads them into Narnia, a world of mythical creatures.

While in Narnia, the Pevensies meet such characters as Tumnus, a friendly faun, Aslan, the great and powerful lion, and the evil White Witch.

The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe will be dramatized by Joseph Robinette and directed by Deb Rogers Holloway.

School performances will be held on April 20-21 at 10 a.m. Night showings will be on April 21-22 at 6:30 p.m. The final day to see the production will be April 23 with two showings at 2:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.

Student tickets are $5, faculty tickets are $10 and individual public tickets are $15 each. Please call Director Holloway with any questions at 615-966-5728.
