It is a tale for anyone who has never been destined to save the world. This clever and inventive play offers a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three potential heroes just trying to make it through a magic school that proves very dangerous for children. Alongside them are the Puffs, a group of well-meaning, loyal outsiders with a thing for badgers.

"Puffs’" cast features the following Lewis University students: Timothy McNeal, Lux Scherer, Molly Gustafson, Janae Larry, Justin “Juice” McCarthy, Sydney Kaczorowski, Mac Maher, Keimari McMichael, Rachel Hampton, Tia Nicholson-Bourne, and Devin Kenebrew.

Kevin Trudeau serves as the director for this magical parody. Set Designer Andrew Nelsen creates an enchanting world with an intricate set that has magic all its own. Costumer Celeste Mackey conjures up more spellbound artistry yet again. Working behind the scenes making the magic come to life are: Keegan Srebro (stage manager), and Dave Pomatto (assistant technical director). Dramaturg for Puffs is Lewis University student Rachel Hampton, and assisting with publicity Lewis University student Molly Gustafson.
