The world is full of magic in the most surprising places. Discover a seashell that can shrink buildings and pick up boats, a ring that tells you the truth about anything you see, a comb that will make your hair grow like wild vines, and a toy car that finds its way home to its original owner.
Join us at the end of the screening on January 24 for a special live performance of Voyage to the Moon, which combines film and dance in an interactive experience for young audience members. Featuring excerpts from the 1902 film that made Georges Méliès famous, and local dance company Version Excursion, the audience follows some astronomers as they explore the moon, encounter the Selenites, and escape back to earth again. Choreography by Erin Nichole Boyt, music by Matt Weber.
