POOF! to Play DownStage Theater at SVCAC

A young boy with growing pains, bored with his seemingly mundane life, seeks adventure and excitement and finds it when he discovers POOF! - the thing inside a magician's hat that makes the magic happen. Along the way, he encounters an evil wizard and his beleaguered apprentice, two magic rabbits who never met a pun they didn't like and an unemployed princess. POOF! will be presented on the DownStage at the Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center.

Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center's more intimate DownStage Theater hosts this fast-paced original magical musical comedy that is part pop-rock musical theater and part vaudevillian comedy - with a pop-culture flair that makes it enjoyable for adults and children alike.

Poof! features a book by Lewis Hauser & Kenny Michelson, Music & Lyrics by Kenny Michelson, Direction by John Dantona and Ronnie Sperling, Musical Direction by Edward Archer and Choreography by Tori Cusack. It is presented by Leticia Mattson and Mr. Write Productions in association with The Michelson Project. Wednesday and Thursday evening shows are at 7:00 p.m. with Saturday matinée at 2:00 p.m. Tickets are $18 Adults and $15 Students & Seniors with special group rates available.
