NARNIA the Musical at Victoria Theatre

NARNIA: The Musical is a dramatization of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the first and most famous of acclaimed British author C.S. Lewiss world-renowned series, The Chronicles of Narnia. It tells of four English schoolchildren brothers and sisters sent away from London during World War II to stay in the manor house of their uncle who stumble upon (and through) a wardrobe into the magical kingdom of Narnia, held in the power of the White Witch, whose evil spell has frozen the land, so that it is always winter and never Christmas. They are embraced by the talking animals, the good Narnians who resist the Witchs evil and await the return of Aslan the Great Lion, who is their rightful ruler. Aslan, who has long been absent from his land (so that some have even doubted his existence) has at last! returned, to confront the Witch, and the children are soon caught up in a fierce struggle of good versus evil. In this spellbound landscape, filled with creatures of myth and fable, the children face temptation and fear, but learn deep lessons of courage, unselfishness, and wisdom that help them grow in spirit and prepare them for life in our world. Narnia wants to sing, and from the excitement of the opening number Doors and Windows, to the the poetry of Narnia (You Cant Imagine), to the stirring To Make the World Right Again, your spirits will soar with all those in this enchanted land.
