 This dramatization of C.S. Lewis' classic work faithfully recreates the magic and mystery of Aslan, the great lion, his struggle with the White Witch, and the adventures of four children who inadvertently and mysteriously slip through an old wardrobe and find themselves in the exciting, never-to-be-forgotten Narnia.

There will be chases, duels and escapes as the witch tries to keep Narnia under her rule and to end the reign of wise and gentle Aslan. Staging of the beloved story includes young Edmund being tempted by the wily witch, the courage of his brother Peter as he takes on the evil wolf, and the witnessing of beloved Aslan's resurrection by sisters Susan and Lucy. Before they return through that magical wardrobe, the four children are honored as new rulers of Narnia.

Through all the action in Narnia, familiar characters such as the unicorn, the centaur and other forest animals are all there. Father Christmas makes an appearance as do the well-known couple, Mr. and Mrs. Beaver and Tumnus the Faun. “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” remains a story of love, faith, courage and giving as it shows the triumph of good over evil.

Appearing in “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” are Lewes residents Gavin Rineer, Natalie Howard, Katey Megginson and Julia Logue, and Milton residents Piper Paul, Olivia Carvajal, Luci Hageman and Haley Roadenbaugh.  Other PJ actors are Jacklynn Gross and Makenna Scheeler of Millsboro, Emerson Wright and Lorraine Westphal of Georgetown, and Summer Everngam and Evelyn Williams of Selbyville. Cast members include Lucas Mahaffey and Jasmine Schaeffer of Ocean View, Kendall Lynch of Milford, and Rylee Curl of Seaford. Rounding out the cast are Cameron Harris of Greenwood, Gabriel Young of Dagsboro and Abbi Weeks of Berlin, Md.
