Oddfellows Playhouse Junior Repertory Company is staging C.S. Lewis' classic novel The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe this month.

The production will run March 16 - 18 at Oddfellows Playhouse, located at 128 Washington Street in Middletown. 

In The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, four children disappear into a cupboard and end up in the land of Narnia, where they become central in a struggle for power between the noble lion Aslan and the White Witch.

Directed by Justin Pesce, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe features scenic design by Dan Schmidt, costume design by Rebecca Welles, lighting design by Douglas Murry, sound design by Mike Skinner, and properties design by Caleb Warner. The dramatic adaptation was written by Joseph Robinette.
