Step with us through a dusty wardrobe and into a snowy landscape filled with thrilling adventure. Meet the majestic Aslan, the loveable Mr Tumnus and his fantastical friends and join their quest to free Narnia from the spell of the White Witch.
Tremendous throughout.
It’s charming as it delights and entertains.
This ambitious ensemble piece has the hallmarks of a classic Lyceum Christmas show that adds another jewel to their 50 year crown.
Driven by the epic sweep of McKenzie's score, this very special show bridges the gulf between innocence and experience, and remains inspirational to the very end of the adventure.
A fine and intriguing children's fantasy adventure, beautifully told.
The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe is a mesmerising triumph for the Lyceum.
Andrew Panton’s musical production treats CS Lewis’s story with absolute seriousness while seamlessly leading you into the wintry world of Narnia.
A true Christmas treat to cheer us through the darkest days of winter.
Heskins’s play is clear, direct, yet poetic. If only director Andrew Panton’s production was equally self-assured.
The primary achievement of Andrew Panton’s production is the elegant simplicity of the presentation.
It has bucketloads of that special ingredient that all Christmas shows need but that so few genuinely possess: magic.
