Set in the 1940’s during WWII, Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy, are evacuated to a professors’ home in the countryside. Stumbling across a wardrobe in a spare room, the four siblings find their way through the wardrobe to the land of Narnia. They encounter many talking animals and mythical creatures, including Mr. Tumnus, the beavers, the lion Aslan and the White Witch.

Adapted from the book by C.S. Lewis, the play explores the themes of family, temptation, betrayal, forgiveness, courage and good versus evil.

This is a dinner table seating event. Take your own food and beverages.

Here are the mechanics: you book your tickets online. Choose the date, then the table, then the number of ‘U3A member’ tickets, then enter the ‘502024’ discount code in the ‘gift certificate / promotion code’ box, then pay.
