The Midnight Fort

Join nine-year-old Robin on a wild, whimsical quest full of creatures, courage, and couch-cushion surprises in this all-ages theatrical fantasy.
 

Co-Presented by Calgary Young Peoples Theatre

Nine-year-old Robin, queen of make-believe, is awakened in the middle of the night by a mysterious glow coming from her living room. The couch-cushion fort she made before bed has magically come to life and is now the gateway to the kingdom of Cravendale. Never one to shy away from adventure, Robin is soon discovered by Major Mirabelle, the princess-protector and tasked with a special mission: to maintain a secret hideout for the creatures of the land! Robin’s living room soon fills up with sassy sprites, acrobatic Wally-Bats, and grannies who foresee the future. But no one could foresee the danger lurking behind the cushions. Before the night is out, Robin and her newfound friends must take a stand—the future of Cravendale depends on it.
