In the original family musical "The Dreammakers," presented by the Freelance Players on May 4-6, Janice, a defiant teenager, is mysteriously, mistakenly and comically transported to the land of the Dreammakers. She finds herself caught in an age-old rivalry between Augusta Euphoria III, head Dreammaker, and her arch rival Lothar the Loathsome, Lord of the Nightmare realm. With the help of Augusta’s bumbling five apprentices, (Virgil, Homer, Livy, Terence, and Dante) Janice brings peace to the divided kingdom.
Written by Sam Abel, directed by Kippy Dewey of Jamaica Plain, and with a score by Narcissa Campion of Brookline, “The Dreammakers” will be performed on Friday May 4 and Saturday May 5 at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday May 6 at 2 p.m., at the Park School, 171 Goddard Ave., Brookline. Admission is $10 for adults, $5 for children. Tickets will only be sold at the door. For more information call 617-232-1175 or visit www.freelanceplayers.org.
