    Lumber and building supplies are always needed for sets. Lowe’s, Home Depot, Menard’s, 84 Lumber are wonderful donation options.

  • SPACE
    We are looking for permanent rehearsal space if possible - do you have a space that isn't being used? Contact us at perrysburgmusicaltheatre@gmail.com to let us know. Temporary space is also appreciated for individual shows if permanent space is not available.
     

  • TIME
    This precious commodity is very appreciated. Each show requires set creation, building, painting, break down, etc. If you have carpentry or artistic skills, we would love to add you to the team.

Adapted from the award-winning children’s novel by Kate DiCamillo and featuring music and lyrics from Marc Teitler and book and lyrics from Nancy Harris, The Magician’s Elephant tells the story of a town recovering from war and the people affected by its wake.

In Baltese, people have lost all faith in life and each other. Peter, a young orphan is told by a mysterious stranger that his sister is still alive, and he will find her through ‘the elephant’. There has never been such a creature in Baltese, a town where nothing extraordinary ever happens. Then one day, a magician conjures an elephant from the sky and its appearance sets off a chain of events so remarkable, so impossible, that it changes Baltese forever. Peter is catapulted into the quest of his life, overturning everything he ever thought he knew, and discovering that happiness can come from the most unexpected places.
