Conejo Players Children's Theatre Presents THE PHANTOM TOLLBOOTH, JR.

The final Children's Theatre production of Conejo Players Theatre's 60th Anniversary Season kicks off October 20, when a cast of talented Conejo Valley kids and teens takes to the stage in The Phantom Tollbooth, Jr.

Adapted from the beloved, award-winning children's book by Norton Juster, this inventive musical features a melodic score by Arnold Black and witty lyrics full of wordplay by Pulitzer Prize and three-time Tony winner Sheldon Harnick.

Even surrounded by dozens of toys, Milo (Skyler Ingram) is bored. Nothing interests him at all - that is, until he takes a trip through the Phantom Tollbooth! Transported to the Land of Wisdom, Milo is thrust into adventure when two princesses need rescuing in order to bring peace between rival kings. Knee-deep in danger, language, and math along the way, Milo learns everything has a purpose ... and that there's never a reason to be bored in a world full of hidden wonders!

Directed by Beth Eslick and produced by Elena Mills - with music direction by Jim Holmes and choreography by Lauren Rachel - The Phantom Tollbooth, Jr., also stars Peter Umipig, Mateo Gonzalez, Theo Chambers, Abhay Yoganathan, Jillian Gonzalez, Lauren Whitton, Brook Lebron, Chiara Caravetta, Brooke Rassell, Sabrina Silva, Madison Towe, Jenna Romo, Julia Kirkpatrick, Caroline Nese, Savanna Miller, Jocelyn Jensen, Sarah Hatfield, Emily Merjan, Apsara Yoganathan, Kaelia Ingram, Aiden Paolini, Jocelyn Urenda, and Aimee Williams.
