Walpole Children’s Theatre Inc., Presents: King Midas and the Touch of Gold Directed by Brian Coveney and Stage Managed by Elizabeth ElwellWalpole Children’s Theatre, Inc. (WCT) is proud to present King Midas and the Touch of Gold February 20th through 28th for seven performances held at the Walpole Footlighters Playhouse on 2 Scout Rd in East Walpole
King Midas is a powerful ruler who can think only of gold.
His lovely daughter, Princess Penelope, is having a birthday, and noble guests come from far and wide, including the handsome Prince Ajax, who loves Penelope.
Three mystical sisters present the princess with the gift of one wish, which Penelope lovingly gives to her father.
He uses his wish to receive ’The Golden Touch.’ At first he’s ecstatic, but slowly it dawns on him that even a king cannot eat gold food or drink gold water.
When he mistakenly touches Penelope, she, too, turns to gold!
A rich moral and laughter abound as Midas painfully learns his lesson and is punished for his greed.
This golden production is suitable for any age.
Runtime is approximately 90 minutes and there will be a 15 minute intermission with cash-only concessions.
