The Witches
By Roald Dahl
Adapted by David Wood
Directed by James Monaghan

Witches hate children. The Boy in this play has been warned about witches by his Grandmother, so he thinks he’s safe—until he overhears the Grand High Witch’s plan to turn all the children of the world into mice using her Formula Eighty-Six Delayed-Action Mouse-Maker! When he is discovered, the Boy fears the witches will kill him—but they test their potion on him instead. Now permanently a mouse, the Boy (and his Grandmother) must try to thwart the witches’ evil plan!

8 Houston-area children ages 12 - 18 perform.

Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm, Sunday at 3:30pm
