Valley View Middle School students in 8th and 9th grades will perform “The Phantom Tollbooth” at the Edina Performing Arts Center on December 4, 5, and 6 at 7:00 pm.

Milo is always bored with everything, until one day a mysterious package arrives. In it is a tollbooth that takes Milo to the Land of Wisdom. Milo meets the Watchdog, Tock, who protects time from being wasted. Together, the two must rescue Dictionopolis and Digitopolis from the chaos that has descended since the Princesses Sweet Rhyme & Pure Reason were banished to the Land of Ignorance. In the end, Milo learns the true value of time and learning.
