The Adventures of Harold and the Purple Crayon

Presented by Enchantment Theatre Company One evening, after thinking it over for some time, Harold decided to go for a walk in the moonlight. So begins Harold and the Purple Crayon, the first of seven delightful picture books by Crockett Johnson, following the zany adventures of an inventive young boy. As it turned out, there wasn’t any moon that night nor was there a path to walk on, so Harold simply drew them. And thus, his journey began. Enchantment Theatre’s production will take your audiences on a wild ride as Harold jets to Mars (shooting stars, spaceships!), joins a circus (he tames a lion!) and rescues a princess in an enchanted castle. The show combines life-size puppets, pantomime, dance, magic and original music. Grades PreK-5 Study Materials
