ICS Drama Presents “The Enchanted Bookshop” by Todd Wallinger



During the month of may, ICS Secondary Drama presented two showings of “The Enchanted Bookshop”. The play featured ICS students as some of the most beloved literary characters pitted against the antagonist. Pioneer Drama Service summarizes the show: “During the day, A Likely Story may look like any other used bookstore.  But at night, it’s a place where magic happens.  That’s when the characters inside the books come alive. 


Six of those characters — Dorothy Gale, Robin Hood, Pollyanna, Sherlock Holmes, Heidi, and Tom Sawyer — long to help Margie, the scatterbrained owner, save her struggling store.  But they’re not allowed to leave the building or be seen by human eyes.  So when a pair of smugglers comes looking for a stolen necklace hidden inside one of the books, the characters are torn.  Should they warn Margie and risk disappearing forever?  Or can they find a way to defeat the crooks without being seen? 


Featuring additional appearances by such beloved literary characters as the Queen of Hearts, Long John Silver, and Doctor Dolittle, this charming comedy celebrates the joy of reading in a fresh, fun-filled way.”


Thank you to our Drama Director Cecilia Acuna for her hardworking to put on this phenomenal show and to the ICS thespians who brought it to life!
