McPherson Theatre returns to the stage with its first live theatrical performance in more than a year on October 1 when it presents the Kansas premiere of “Puffs or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic.” The season-opening performance will run on October 1-2 at 7:30 p.m. in Brown Auditorium.
“Puffs” is a comic spoof on the Harry Potter stories told by members of the Hufflepuff house. It is the story about everyone else and what they did while the wizarding world hung in the balance between good and evil; its lesson is not everyone can be a hero, but they can still live their own best lives. The performance is part of the McPherson College Homecoming weekend of events.
“Puffs was postponed during last year’s season due to the pandemic,” Jd. Bowman, professor of theatre, said. “We’re so excited to be offering it for Homecoming this season. It’s a delightfully fun show whether people know the Harry Potter series or not.”
