Celebrate the joy of reading in a fresh, fun-filled, and musical way! The enormously popular children’s play, The Enchanted Bookshop, is also a musical!
An ordinary used book shop by day, A Likely Story becomes a magical place each night. Thanks to a spell from the Book Fairy, the characters inside the books come alive each and every night. Six of those characters — Dorothy Gale, Robin Hood, Pollyanna, Sherlock Holmes, Heidi, and Tom Sawyer — long to help Margie, the scatterbrained owner, save her struggling store. But they’re not allowed to leave the building or be seen by human eyes.
So when a pair of bungling smugglers comes looking for a stolen necklace hidden inside one of the books, the characters are torn. Should they warn Margie and risk disappearing forever? Or can they find a way to defeat the crooks without being seen?
Including appearances by other literary characters such as the Queen of Hearts, Long John Silver, and Doctor Doolittle, and with a toe-tapping score from Stephen Murray featuring jazz, march, and pop tunes, this charming musical will enchant audiences young and old.

This has been one of our most favorite shows; in fact, I am planning to do it again for our homeschool kiddos. This show had all the adults laughing, and they loved the music. Fabulous show! Nikki Dyba, Jacksonville Performing Arts, Jacksonville, NC
