Weβre all heading to summer camp with Pima Theaterβs original production βWandless: Power Beyond Spells.β
But this isnβt the canoeing on the lake, hiking in the forest kind of summer camp experience.
The campers in the Pima Community College student-penned βWandlessβ possess unexpected powers that put them in the crosshairs of Cordelia, a sinister enchantress who is a bit on the greedy side: She wants those powers for herself.
Cordellia (Timea Post), front, leads a group of campers in a scene from Pima Community Collegeβs production of βWandless: Power Beyond Spells.β It runs Nov. 21-24 at Pimaβs Black Box Theatre.
βWandless,β which runs Thursday-Sunday, Nov. 21-24, at Pimaβs Black Box Theatre, was written by Pima Theater students and directed by Pima alumnus Samantha Cormier.
Cormier, who went on to the University of Arizonaβs School of Theatre, Film & Television to earn her bachelorβs of fine arts and a masterβs from the Savannah College of Art and Design, works with several Tucson theaters.
Pima Community Collegeβs Theatre Department is staging an original play written by students. βWandless: Power Beyond Spellsβ runs Nov. 21-24 at Pimaβs Black Box Theatre.
To combat Cordelia, the campers band together βbalancing bravery, humor and trust to defeat her and protect their future,β according to program notes. The play explores courage, friendship and personal growth through thrilling plot twists and witty dialogue.
The show is at 7 p.m. Thursday and Friday, 2 and 7 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday at the Black Box Theatre in Pima Community Collegeβs West Campus Center for the Arts, 2202 W. Anklam Road. Tickets are $5 and $10 through eventbrite.com; Pima students receive one free ticket.
