Description:

Seeking talent ages 16 and up for "Puffs" Show. Please see the details below. About the project: For seven years a certain boy wizard went to a certain Wizard School and conquered evil. This, however, is not his story. This is the story of the Puffs... who just happened to be there too. This clever and inventive play gives a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three potential heroes just trying to make it through a magic school that proves to be very dangerous for children. This is a tale for anyone who has never been destined to save the world, an epic journey that takes the classic story to new places and reimagines what a boy wizard hero can be.
