National Youth Theater to Present NARNIA, THE MUSICAL in November

National Youth Theater will present Narnia, The Musical, November 18-20. 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. Lewis's 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 Witch's 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.

The directorial team for Narnia includes director Shana Manna, assistant director Madison Stone, co-vocal directors Allen Barreras and Josh Reed, and choreographer Jaylyn Richards.
