This new dramatization of C.S. Lewis' classic is set in the land of Narnia. It faithfully recreates the magic and mystery of Aslan, the great lion, his struggle with the White Witch, and the adventures of four children who inadvertently wander from an old wardrobe into the exciting, never-to-be-forgotten Narnia. The intense action features chases, duels and escapes as the witch is determined to keep Narnia in her possession and to end the reign of Aslan. All the memorable episodes from the story are represented in this exciting dramatization: the temptation of Edmund by the witch, the slaying of the evil wolf by Peter, the witnessing of Aslan's resurrection by Susan and Lucy, the crowing of the four new rulers of Narnia, and more. The supporting characters are also here: the unicorn, the centaur and other forest animals, along with Father Christmas, Mr. and Mrs. Beaver and Tumnus the Faun.

Joseph Robinette is the author of 51 published plays and musicals, including The Fabulous Fable Factory, written with composer Thomas Tierney, and Charlotte's Web, adapted from the novel by E.B. White, two of the most widely produced children's plays in the United States. He has also dramatized the authorized stage versions of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Paper Chase, and A Rose for Emily. The recipient of numerous playwriting awards, Robinette was presented the 1976 Charlotte Chorpenning Cup, given annually by the Children's Theatre Association of America to "an outstanding writer of children's plays who has achieved national recognition." In 2002, as professor of theatre at Rowan University, he received the Lindback Distinguished Teaching Award for Demonstrated Excellence in the University Classroom. In 2004, he received the American Association for Theatre and Eductation's best play award for his adaptation of Sarah, Plain and Tall, and in 2006, he was awarded the Children's Theatre Foundation of America Medallion "...for his body of dramatic works for children and young people in the United States and beyond." He currently resides in New Jersey.

C.S. Lewis (1898-1963) was a prolific English author and scholar whose writings include literary essays and histories, poems, imaginative fiction and many works on Christian and moral themes. Among his books are The Allegory of Love, The Screwtape Letters, Out of the Silent Planet, Till We Have Faces and the autobiographical Surprised by Joy. Best loved are the seven fairy tales collectively entitled The Chronicles of Narnia in which Lewis created a magical, allegorical world populated by creatures of myth and fantasy and ruled over by Aslan, the Great Lion. Since published in 1950, the first of the chronicles, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, has been read and reread with delight and deepening understanding by millions of children and adults alike. It has been through over 40 editions and re-printings in English and translated into more than two dozen languages. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe has been widely acclaimed as a true modern classic.
