The Hobbit

THE FABLED FANTASY BECOMES REALITY
In this all-ages adventure, J.R.R. Tolkien’s magical Middle Earth transitions from page to stage in spellbinding fashion. An unexpected journey awaits homebody Bilbo Baggins, his BFF Gandalf, a new guy named Thorin, and anyone brave enough to join them. What starts as a Dungeons and Dragons tabletop game between friends quickly escalates into a collective fever dream as the group overcomes obstacles ranging from monstrous goblins to the fearsome dragon Smaug and form a bond for the ages. This epic trek, reimagined through the whimsical lens of playwright Greg Banks (Public's Unplugged Robin Hood) and featuring puppets designed by Resident Artists Matt Acheson (Broadway’s War Horse Puppetry Director) and Jamie Agnello, is a treasure hunt sure to make families want to go there and back again.

This show is rated PG and is recommended for ages 7+. This show contains characters that go on perilous adventures, scary imagery, death and destruction of mythical towns, and moments of magic and imagination.
