PUFFS! The #MTHS Theatre Company's fall show is fun for everyone! Puffs is the story of a regular boy who finds out he's a wizard and goes to school in England where he makes two best friends and has adventures. This, perhaps, sounds familiar? But, these magical kids simply want to learn how to be wizards and avoid attacks by evil wizards.
Don't miss this spectacular spoof on a classic favorite! See it at #MTHS Nov. 16, 17 & 18 at 7:30PM! Tickets $10 & $12! GET TICKETS NOW: http://mthsnj.booktix.net/
