When you think of Christ-

mas, do you often find your

self singing “Toyland, Toy-

land, little girl and boy

land…”. Many people do,

thanks to the music of Victor

Herbert and the classic story

“Babes in Toyland”. The

Colonnade Players, in asso-

ciation with The Dramatic

Publishing Company, will be

bringing the classic to life on

The Colonnade Stage this

November.

Director Heidi Riddle returns

to the helm to direct the

cast of 20 local adults and

children in a retelling of the

beloved story of the evil plot

of Uncle Barnaby to turn

children into toys in the

hopes of becoming Santa’s

biggest toy supplier.

Libretto and lyrics are

adapted by Ruth Perry with

Ann Smit and Susan Carle

from the original operetta

by Victor Herbert and Glen

MacDonough into a story

that appeals to all ages.

See the story through to its

conclusion with the March

of the Wooden Soldiers, the

arrival of Santa and the

magic of Christmas leaving

you singing “Hail to Christ-

mas, joyous Christmas”.

Shows will be held Novem-

ber 14, 15, 21 & 22, 2014 at

7:30pm. There will be a

matinee on Saturday,
