Masquers to present ‘The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe’ Dec. 6-9

Nov. 28, 2023 - The Masquers drama student organization at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls will present “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” Dec. 6-9 at 7:30 p.m. in the Blanche Davis Theatre in the Kleinpell Fine Arts building. Admission is free.

This dramatization of C.S. Lewis' classic work 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. The intense action features chases, duels and escapes as the witch is determined to keep Narnia in her possession and to end the reign of Aslan. 

This production of “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” has been dramatized by Joseph Robinette from the story by C.S. Lewis and is directed by UWRF student Isabelle Hammond of St. Paul.
