WMS musical opens tonight

WORLAND — The Worland Middle School Drama Department will present “The Enchanted Bookshop, the Musical” this Thursday and Friday at the school auditorium.

Curtain opens at 7 p.m. both nights. Tickets are sold at the door.

This year’s musical production is under the direction of Naomi Durrant. She said the play is about a struggling bookstore whose owner gets assistance from the characters in the books in the store.

Durrant said some jewel thieves and a cat play important roles in the story as well.

There are 30 students involved in the cast and crew with auditions held in January.

“They are really good kids and I’m glad to be working with them,” Durrant said.
