The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is coming to Theatre Orangeville

ORANGEVILLE – From Aug. 23 to 25 Theatre Orangeville’s Young Company will offer a presentation of C. S. Lewis’ The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, dramatized by Joseph Robinette.

The play “faithfully recreates the magic and mystery of Aslan, the great lion, his struggle with the White Witch, and the adventures of four children who inadvertently wander from an old wardrobe into the exciting, never-to-be-forgotten Narnia,” officials state in a press release. 

It will take place at the Opera House at 87 Broadway in Orangeville. 

“The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe depicts a story of love, faith, courage and giving, with its triumph of good over evil, is a true celebration of life,” officials state. 

Elevator out of service

The Town of Orangeville has commenced work on replacing the elevator in Town Hall, and the work will continue during August and September. 

During this time access to the Opera House may be unavailable to some. 

“Theatre Orangeville remains committed to meeting the accessibility needs of all people and are actively looking for ways to ensure all patrons are able to enjoy our productions during this period,” officials state. 

“We will provide seating on the ground floor in the atrium and broadcast the performance live from the stage to the screens.”

This viewing option will be made available on Sunday Aug. 25 at the matinee performance.
