Weed / COS – Looking for a fun night of Theatre or a reason to dress up after Halloween. Join us for the COS Fall Production opening Friday, November 8th. Our Performing Arts Department is thrilled to present "Puffs, or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic" (Two act edition for Young Wizards) written by Matt Cox and directed by Kathryn Young
Performances are scheduled for Friday and Saturday evenings, November 8, 9, 15, and 16 at 7:00 pm and Sunday afternoons, November 10 and 17 at 3:00 pm in the Weed Campus Kenneth W. Ford Theater. Suggested donation is $10.
For seven years a certain boy wizard went to a certain school and conquered evil. You Know Who He Is. This is not his story, sorry, but that of those who also happened to be there, too. PUFFS is a play for anyone who has never been destined to save the world! This clever show "never goes more than a minute without a laugh" (Nerdist) giving you a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three potential heroes just trying to place fourth at a very dangerous magic school for kids. Overlooked and underestimated, the Puffs are a perky, well-meaning, loyal group of outsiders with a thing for badgers. Their "hilariously heartfelt!" (Metro) and epic journey takes the classic story to new places and reimagines what a hero can be.
Audiences will be left in stitches and reminded that even the most ordinary people can do extraordinary things. We’re excited for the community to join us as we embark on this spellbinding adventure, and experience the wizarding world from a whole new perspective.
