Civic Youth Theatre Musical

Young Merlin, who lives with the Old Master Sorcerer and his wife, is tired of doing chores like cleaning out the dragon cage and mopping the floor. Instead, he only wants to work on mastering his magical skills. At the same time, another young lad, Arthur, is destined to become king – but only if he is able to pull the magical sword, Excalibur, from the stone. Through a magical twist of fate, Arthur, who is nicknamed “Wart”, and Merlin become fast friends. Ultimately, will Merlin choose his lifelong dream of magic or friendship with Arthur? Will Arthur pull the sword from the stone and become king? Can the young apprentice Merlin become the greatest wizard of the land? Magical surprises provide all the answers in this enchanted and bewitching musical adventure.
