The LCC Performing Arts Theatre program wraps up its 2024-25 Season with Puffs OR; Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic by Matt Cox, directed by Blake Bowen. The play, a parody about young wizarding students in the “Puff” house, opened off-Broadway in 2017. It’s considered one of the most produced plays in the United States, according to the theatre magazine, Playbill.
Synopsis: For seven years a certain boy wizard went to Wizard School. This, however, is not his story. This is the story of The Puffs… who just happened to be there too. This is a play for anyone who has never been destined to save the world.
Puffs, OR; Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic & Magic is a comedy for anyone who has ever felt like a secondary character in someone else’s story. The play gives you a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three new heroes just trying to make it through magic school.
