The Sorcerer's Apprentice is an ancient story about a powerful magician and his hapless apprentice. This production retells the story with a modern twist! It's Annie's first day on the job as a sorcerer's apprentice. She's fascinated by the skill and artistry of the magician and can't help but try her hand at some of his tricks when he's not looking. Sorcerer Sam, driven by ego and under pressure to rehearse a big show, doesn't see what Annie has to offer until it's almost too late. This is a charming story of two people finding a way through their strengths and weaknesses to achieve something they couldn't have done on their own. Puppetry, magic and laughter all play an important role in the show.
