What It's About
Our unlikely hero, Bilbo Baggins, would much rather be sitting in his cozy Hobbit Hole with a cup of tea and a plate of bacon and eggs. However, he somehow finds himself on a magically mystical adventure. Staged with speed and surprises, audiences of all generations will love this multidisciplinary theatrical spectacle accompanied by live musicians. Five agile actors and healthy dose theater magic come together to create 13 dwarves, a wizard, a hobbit, elves, goblins, wolves, and more! Bilbo travels on an epic journey over freezing mountains and a frightening forest, meeting all sorts of fierce creatures – some become friend and some foe – and discovers that some things are truly worth fighting for. Isn’t it time for an adventure?
The Hobbit is a wonderful way to experience this story for the first time at the same time it will surely delight the staunchest Tolkien enthusiast.
a pulsating portrait of wasted youth that invokes all the standard genre conventions [only] to transcend them through the power of its music and the artistry of its execution, the show is as invigorating and ultimately as moving as anything I've seen on Broadway. – The New York Times.

There are dozens of us! DOZENS! Heyyyyyy Uncle Father Oscar. Well excuse me, Judge Reinhold! It’s Sunday, but screw it — juice box time. I’ve always been deeply passionate about nature. Perhaps you remember Neuterfest? I’ll never forget your wedding. Well excuse me, Judge Reinhold! It’s Sunday, but screw it — juice box time. I’ve always been deeply passionate about nature.
