What better time of year than Halloween to conjure up the trio of sisters, Winnifred, Sarah and Mary Sanderson, who way, way back in 1693 in Salem Massachusetts met a sad fate. It seems a young lad named Thackery Binx interfered with the witches and their witching business and caused them to be hung. For his troubles he was turned into an immortal black cat through a magic spell and he has waited patiently and impatiently for three centuries to be released from their powers. Now is the day of reckoning and you can witness everything.
Come enter the fascinating, frightening and funny tale all this autumn when “Hocus Pocus LIVE!!!” flies into a variety of venues all over Connecticut for your spooky and spectacular pleasure. This all new parody musical is the gift of Summer Orlando Productions, starring Summer Orlando, Barbra Joan Streetsand and Miranda Miranda. These sisters three will bewitch and amaze you, thrill and entertain you and scare and astound you.
On Halloween Eve, 300 years later, the sisters return for trick and treat madcaps and mischief to Salem and only one force can stop them on their broomsticks: a black cat. With spells, curses, potions and evil hearts, the trio have a mission that will affect Salem forever. Be careful not to call them “ugly” if you meet them in the dark of night.
“I Put a Spell on You” is the magical tune that casts a spell on all the children at the holiday party and brother and sister Max and Emily and their cohorts know the danger the town is facing. Can the children escape the curse? Will the black candle burn long enough for the coven of witches to win their revenge and regain their youth?
