Miami University Theatre is ready for some magic with its upcoming production of "Puffs" by Matt Cox, running from May 1-5, 2024, at Gates-Abegglen Theatre.

For seven years, a certain boy wizard went to a certain Wizard School and conquered evil. This, however, is not his story. Puffs gives a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three potential heroes from another house, just trying to make it through the perils of growing up in a magic school. Alongside them are a group of loyal outcasts with a thing for badgers. Their heartfelt and epic journey takes the classic story to new places and reimagines what a boy wizard hero can be.
