This fall, Platte Valley Theatre Arts invites audiences of all ages to rediscover the magic of Narnia with The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe — a playful, two-person version of C.S. Lewis’s timeless tale, dramatized by Le Clanché du Rand.
In this inventive production, actors Rachel Graham and Carter Edward Smith transform the stage at the Armory into a world of snow, wonder, and adventure. With only two performers, the story unfolds through imaginative movement, clever staging, and pure theatrical creativity. It’s a show that celebrates the power of play and reminds us how storytelling itself can open doors to new worlds.
Perfect for families, students, and anyone who believes in the magic of imagination, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe is part of Platte Valley Theatre Arts’ Theatre for Young Audiences series — offering free admission performances that make live theatre accessible to everyone. Since 2022, PVTA has presented four of these joyful productions, sharing stories that inspire curiosity and creativity in young minds.
Performances will be held at The Armory Performing Arts Center in Brighton:
- Saturday, November 1 at 10:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
- Monday, November 3 at 10:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
The show runs approximately 40 minutes, making it a perfect introduction to live theatre for young audiences. Admission is free, but seating is limited — reserve your tickets on our website and step through the wardrobe into a world where imagination reigns.
