Wait, you mean someone commissioned author
Katherine Catmull to adapt
her excellent fantasy novel for the stage? Yes,
Austin Playhouse did that – and now the company's
Theatre for Youth program presents the world premiere of this modern wonderment, suitable for the whole family, as directed by
Lara Toner Haddock. And – look, birdlings! –
here's our review of the show.
May 4-12. Sat., 2 & 7:30pm; Sun., 2pm. Extra show: Fri., May 3, 7:30pm. $7-28 (free, ages 4-18).
