The musical Room on the Broom, adapted from the best-selling book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler and performed by London’s Tall Stories Theatre Company, features incredible puppets, original songs, and lots of fun. The playful and lively show follows a happy witch and her cat as their enjoyable broomstick ride is interrupted by a stormy wind that blows away the witch’s hat, bow, and wand. A dog, a bird, and a frog find the witch’s things and hop on the broom for a ride. The broomstick isn’t built for five, though, and it soon snaps in two. When a hungry dragon appears, who will save the witch? And will the broom ever accommodate everyone? The musical showcases the British company’s distinctive physical and visual performance style.

Audio description, which is especially helpful to patrons with sight loss, is available for the performance at no extra charge to ticket holders.
