By Jacqueline Goldfinger
Adapted from the novel by Madeleine L’Engle
Directed by Nicole A. Watson
Featuring Alicia Grace, David Landstrom, Vaughn Ryan Midder, Lynette Rathnam, and Tyasia Velines
One of literature’s favorite heroines, Meg Murry, is back to join forces with her brother Charles Wallace and friend Calvin O’Keefe for a fantastical adventure. Playwright JACQUELINE GOLDFINGER and director NICOLE A. WATSON bring the exciting sequel to MADELEINE L’ENGLE’s beloved book A Wrinkle in Time to the stage. When an extraterrestrial being recruits the trio to fight an evil force, they’ll travel across a galaxy—and through the cells of a human body—to stop it. This thrilling sci-fi story reveals that love and kindness are the best antidotes to evil.
