Sometimes I wish I could still see things through the eyes of a child. I miss the days when a pillow fort could be a dark and endless cave, when a stuffed animal could be a very real, very talkative playmate, and when anyone in costume was automatically magical and mystical. A kid can believe anything, as long as it is told with excitement and authority. Last night, I attended the Wheelock Family Theatre's production of The Hobbit, and I once again wished I was a child.

"THE HOBBIT" to open at Wheelock Family Theatre; 33rd year of professional Equity theatre in Boston. The Wheelock Family Theatre's production of The Hobbit captures the humor, excitement, shadows of evil, and beacons of good of one of the world's best-loved stories. Filled with compelling characters, vivid imagery, and brilliantly evocative language, The Hobbit and two volumes of The Lord of the Rings are among the six best-selling novels of all time.
