Carousel Players: Where the Wild Things Are

November 15 @ 11:00 AM
$20

Sail away to the land of the Wild Things! Jump in and help Max transform his bedroom into an exotic jungle, then transport yourself to where the wild things are. After being crowned king of these magical creatures, Max must make a decision: stay and rule the Wild Things or return home. Based on the timeless children’s book, Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak, this interactive adventure by Presentation House is filled with guided play for ages 3 to 7. Together, young ones and their adults can join the wild ride!

This production of Where the Wild Things Are is an interactive experience. Audience members will be seated around the performance area on three large mats, with limited chairs provided at the back for grownups who may require a seat.
