Lifeline Theatre's KidSeries presents a world premiere stage adaptation of The 13 Clocks, based on the irreverent fairy tale by James Thurber. The production is adapted by Lifeline Theatre ensemble member Robert Kauzlaric (two-time Non-Equity Jeff Award-winning adaptor), and directed by Serendipity Theatre Collective Artistic Director Amanda Delheimer. On a faraway island, a wicked Duke has locked his niece in a high tower. When Prince Zorn of Zorna, in disguise as a wandering minstrel, learns of Saralinda's fate, he vows to free her - even if it means traveling thrice around the moon or turning November into June. Join Zorn on an unforgettable adventure complete with puppetry and song, spies and monsters, mysterious wizards, and magic spells to be broken. A modern twist on classic fairy tales, filled with wit and humor, in a world premiere adaptation. This production is appropriate for children ages five and up, and runs approximately one hour with no intermission. The book will be on sale in the lobby.
