ValleyCAST hosts WCC Winter Youth Theater Program's production of The Enchanted Bookshop

March 14, 2025
Singh Performance Center, 60 Douglas Road, Whitinsville, MA

The Enchanted Bookshop by Todd Wallinger

Presented by The Whitin Community Center's Winter Youth Theater Program

Friday & Saturday, March 14 & 15 at 7:00 PM and Saturday, March 15 at 2:00 PM

During the day, A Likely Story may look like any other used bookstore, but at night, it’s a place where magic happens. That’s when the characters inside the books come alive.  Six of those characters — Dorothy Gale, Robin Hood, Pollyanna, Sherlock Holmes, Heidi, and Tom Sawyer — long to help Margie, the scatterbrained owner, save her struggling store.  But these characters are not allowed to leave the building or be seen by human eyes.  So when a pair of smugglers comes looking for a stolen necklace hidden inside one of the books, the characters are torn.  Should they warn Margie and risk disappearing forever?  Or can they find a way to defeat the crooks without being seen?  Featuring additional appearances by such beloved literary characters as the Queen of Hearts, Long John Silver, and Doctor Dolittle, this charming comedy celebrates the joy of reading in a fresh, fun-filled way.

Tickets at the door $10 each.

The Singh Performance Center participates in the Card to Culture program and offers a $5 flat rate ticket price to EBT, WIC and ConnectorCare cardholders and their families.

Sponsored in part by ValleyCAST, Open Sky Community Services, and a grant by the Massachusetts Cultural Council
