Pioneer Middle School will present its annual musical, "Magic Tree House: A Ghost Tale for Mr. Dickens Jr.," on Thursday, Dec, 11, and Friday, Dec. 12, at 7:00 p.m., in the Pioneer High School Auditorium.
These teachers are leading the performance: Ceresa Kozlowski, Donna Catalano, and Natalie Bucholtz.
The musical is an adaptation of book #44 of Mary Pope Osborne's award-winning fantasy adventure books from the Magic Tree House book series, which has sold more than 100 million copies and is available in more than 100 countries around the world. Jack and Annie’s tree house takes them to Victorian London in this holiday-themed story, where they learn the importance of charity and kindness through their friendship with legendary author, Charles Dickens.
The Magic Tree House whisks Jack and Annie back in time to the foggy streets of Victorian London, where they meet the famous, well-off author, Charles Dickens, who has a severe case of writer’s block. Jack and Annie also witness the hardships faced by the poor, and their efforts to help only land them in prison. Mr. Dickens rescues Jack and Annie, and they, in turn, help him escape the sad memories that haunt him. In the process, they inspire Mr. Dickens to write one of the greatest holiday stories of all time.
"Magic Tree House: A Ghost Tale for Mr. Dickens Jr.". puts a unique twist on a famous holiday tale and is a great choice for the entire family.. Large song and dance numbers throughout Victorian London make this piece a great way to showcase creative choreography. Tickets are $7 and available at the door.
