Ridge View High School theater department presents 'The Witches'

The Ridge View High School Theater Department invites the public to its performance of “The Witches” on Friday, April 25 and Saturday, April 26 at 7 p.m. at Rosemary Clausen Center for Performing Arts. Tickets are $6.

Hold on to your mice-and beware of ladies in gloves! Roald Dahl’s “The Witches,” adapted for the stage by David Wood, brings to life the darkly hilarious tale of a young boy and his wise grandmother who uncover a terrifying secret: real witches are living among us, and they absolutely detest children. When the boy accidentally stumbles upon the Grand High Witch’s nefarious plan to turn all children into mice, he must use his wits to stop her. Packed with comedy, thrills and a touch of Dahl’s deliciously wicked imagination, “The Witches” is a spellbinding adventure for brave audiences of all ages.
