THE EMPEROR’S NEW CLOTHES

 

By Erin E. Dolan (LCCC Alum)

Based on the story by Hans Christian Anderson

Directed by Rachael Endrizzi (LCCC Alum)

 

Lorain County Community College theatre program and Spark Theatre Company proudly present “The Emperor’s New Clothes,” a new take on the timeless tale. When two strangers arrive in the city of Logos, they call attention to themselves by claiming to be able to make the most magnificent and magical clothing. Emperor Caecus cannot resist such a claim, especially when he finds out that the magic in the cloth means that those who are unfit for their position cannot see the garments made from the fabric. The ensuing silliness can only be sorted out by the most intelligent and sensible person in the empire, a child named Captiosus. This adaptation is written by Cleveland playwright and LCCC alum, Erin E. Dolan and directed by Rachael Endrizzi, LCCC Alum and co-founder of Spark Theatre Company. This is a great show for multigenerational families including children ages 5 and older.
