Tickets Available for Rainbow Company Youth Theatre’s Production of “The Neverending Story”

Performances Take Place Friday, Saturday and Sunday from Oct. 1 To 10

Rainbow Company Youth Theatre, a city of Las Vegas program, presents “The Neverending Story” Oct. 1-3 and 8-10 at Charleston Heights Arts Center, 800 S. Brush St. All current COVID-19 safety protocols will be followed; audience members are asked to wear a mask.

This classic adventure follows Bastian, a lonely boy victimized by bullies, who finds a very curious book — “The Neverending Story.” Bastian enters the world of the novel which is being destroyed by The Nothing and ends up the only one that can save it. The production was adapted by David S. Craig based upon the novel by Michael Ende.

In addition to more than 40 cast members, the production features a number of notable creative collaborators including:

dance choreographer Ginnie Barnson, previously from the Nevada Theater Company’s Children’s Theatre Company at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas;
costume designer Meda Braker, wardrobe mistress with over 20 years of experience;
fight choreographer Sean Critchfield, member of the Tournament of Kings at the Excalibur Hotel; and,
director Joy Demain, founder of Jade Productions.
