Town Hall Theatre
Nov. 4-6
Centerville

When the Snow Queen shatters a magic mirror that reflects all the ugliness of the world, a tiny shard flies into Kay’s eye, turning him into a nasty brat. When Kay is captured by the Snow Queen and taken to her castle, his cousin Gerda must save the day! Armed with her jar of warm wishes and giggle-inducing snickerdoodles, Gerda sets out on an adventure full of talking flowers and animals, princesses and robbers, kooky curses and cranky imps. It’ll take everything she’s got to melt Kay’s frozen heart and defeat the wicked Snow Queen. Recommended for youth ages 4 and up.
