The Breakthrough Theatre of Winter Park presents a play based on Washington Irving's classic tale, "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow", from October 10-27, 2014. The play is directed by Wade Hair.
Early on a September morning the villagers of Sleepy Hollow await their new schoolmaster. When Ichabod finally arrives, his priggish correctness casts a pall over the gossipy, prank-playing townsfolk. Soon enough, though, his genteel manners and his hymn singing impress the ladies, including Katrina Van Tassel, the town belle. The menfolk are less thrilled, especially Brom Bones, Katrina's beau, and he begins plotting to rid himself of his unwelcome rival. Matters come to a head during the Van Tassel's Halloween party, after which the superstitious Ichabod is accosted on his lonely ride home by a fiendish apparition, the Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow.
Show Dates and Times: October 10-13, 17-20, AND 24-27 (Fridays, Saturdays, and Mondays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 3 p.m.). Prices: $20 general admission; $18 senior citizens; $15 students; $12 Mondays; and $10 Breakthrough alumni. *Cash only at the door or you may purchase tickets at
