The TCAN Players return with their production of PUFFS, or, Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic – a play written by Matt Cox, and directed at TCAN by Danielle Woods.
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.
PUFFS is a play for anyone who has never been destined to save the world! This clever show “never goes more than a minute without a laugh” (Nerdist) giving you a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three potential heroes just trying to place fourth at a very dangerous magic school for kids. Overlooked and underestimated, the Puffs are a perky, well-meaning, loyal group of outsiders with a thing for badgers. Their “hilariously heartfelt!” (Metro) and epic journey takes the classic story to new places and reimagines what a hero can be.
CONTENT ADVISORY
PUFFS, like the source material it parodies, can be considered PG-13. It features some adult language and situations. We leave it up to parents to decide for themselves if this show is right for those under the age of 13, younger wizards may learn some new curses.
Directed by Danielle Woods
Produced by Amanda Greenslet and Dick Mandel
