The Wizards of Oakwood Drive
"Absolutely Enchanting..." - The New York Times
EXTENDED AGAIN! Now - Sept. 27 The New York Times raves: "...enchantment is possible even indoors, that absent friends are nearer than you think, that a lockdown is no bar to adventure. Which is a really nice reminder of what theater can do, even remotely." "Breezy and funny, with humor both children and adults will enjoy... Pushed the envelope of what's possible in the virtual format." Praise from The San Diego Union-Tribune for THE WIZARDS OF OAKWOOD DRIVE. This live, zoom-centered performance for young audiences is an all-out, winner-take-all magic spell contest. Up to 10 kids at a time will embark on a treasure hunt around their own homes, as our sibling wizards enact increasingly hilarious and mysterious spells for the panel of kid judges. With a little help from parents, participants will find special items in hidden locations in a one-ofa-kind WOW piece that is sure to delight. While working together and learning that wizard teamwork makes the wizard dream work, kids will have a chance to connect in a special interactive performance that will infuse their summer with a little magic.
