Open Window Theatre’s expanded performance space will feature “The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe” Dec. 4-30.
The special Christmas-time staging of the C.S. Lewis classic from The Chronicles of Narnia includes an invitation for children to meet Father Christmas after the show and receive a small gift. The Open Window Theatre has free parking and is located at 1313 Chestnut Ave #102 in Minneapolis, just north of the Basilica of St. Mary.
Although not a “typical” Christmas show, the script includes an appearance by Father Christmas, who foreshadows the ending of winter and of the White Witch’s reign. Themes of sacrifice, forgiveness and redemption are familiar to readers of the Narnia series and appeal to audiences young and old.
