Narnia comes to life May 7-10

Special to The Clinton Courier

Clintonians are invited to travel to Narnia with the Brick Street Players as they bring C.S. Lewis’ The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe to life.

The play, dramatized by Joseph Robinette and directed by Allie Bennett, follows the Pevensie siblings as they pass through an ordinary wardrobe into a land of magic and wonder, where they encounter a mysterious witch and a majestic lion.

The final production of the Players’ 2025-26 season includes actors of all ages from throughout Clinton and the surrounding area, and organizers say it is sure to be a family favorite.

Show dates are nightly May 7 through May 9 at 7 p.m., with a matinee set for 2:30 p.m. on May 10. All performances will be held at the Entergy Theatre, located at Mississippi College’s Gore Arts Complex, 199 Monroe Drive.
