Robert Munsch’s The Paper Bag Princess
The highly anticipated play, The Paper Bag Princess, directed by Randi Edmundson, will be performed from November 29th – December 7, 2024. This will be the first production of UFV Theatre’s 2024-2025 season and this year we are proud to be in partnership with the Chilliwack Cultural Centre, who will be hosting two performances in their Rotary Hall Studio Theatre.
Presented by the UFV SOCA Acting and Production Classes, The Paper Bag Princess is a fun and silly adventure about a Princess that saves a Prince from the smartest and fiercest dragon in the whole world! As a part of Theatre for Young Audiences, this play presents lessons in being true and confident in your self, and introductions to feminism by challenging gender roles and expectations. Based on the popular and beloved children’s book, The Paper Bag Princess © 1980 Bob Munsch Enterprises Ltd (text) and Michael Martchenko (art), published by Annick Press.
Unless otherwise indicated, performances will be held in the Performance Studio, Building D, 105, Abbotsford Campus, University of the Fraser Valley, 33844 King Road.
