Part of Downtown Culpeper’s Wizard Weekend!
She’s not *that* wizard with the lightning bolt… but she is hilarious.
Join us for a magical, laugh-out-loud parody that turns the wizarding world upside down! Sally Cotter and the Censored Stone follows an ordinary girl who discovers she’s extraordinary — just in time to enroll at a school for young spellcasters, battle suspicious professors, and face a mysterious prophecy she doesn’t quite understand.
Written by Dean O’Carroll, this fast-paced spoof is packed with puns, potions, and plenty of theatrical mischief. A perfect intro to live theater for kids and teens — and a treat for grown-ups who know their Hogwarts from their Hogwash.

Saturday, July 26 at 2:00 PM & 7:00 PM
