Based on the cherished film: when a girl whose family has fallen on hard times nurses a reindeer back to health, magical things happen for her and the whole town.
Magical Theatre Company, Northeast Ohio’s professional resident and touring theatre for young audiences and families, presents the Ohio premiere of Prancer, November 30 – December 16. When an injured reindeer appears in Jessica’s backyard, she believes it is Prancer. She also believes in miracles, friendship, and devotion. Based on the cherished film, this play will sneak up on you, gently settling itself into your heart.
Directed by Holly Barkdoll, the talented cast is a company of professional adults with young actors working side by side. Prancer, showcasing a magical life-size puppet designed and built by Mark Jenks of Cleveland, is most enjoyed by families ages 6 and up.
