Event Description
Experience the enchanting world of The Wilds, presented by critically acclaimed theatrical imagineers, the WONDERHEADS. Praised by the CBC as "Captivating and magical," this extraordinary production unravels a tale that will touch your heart and ignite your imagination.
When Wendell discovers the sudden disappearance of his wife Tilda and their cherished tree from their backyard, he embarks on a journey into the neighboring forest. His quest: to unravel the enigmatic secrets of the woods and reunite his family. Funny and profoundly touching, this wordless award-winning show features WONDERHEADS’ signature masks, whimsical puppetry, and an enchanting musical score, creating an experience designed to delight audiences of all ages, from 8-108.
“Nothing short of exceptional.”

The WONDERHEADS are thrilled to return to the McPherson Playhouse, having previously presented A WONDERHEADS Christmas Carol and LOON on its beautiful stage. These visual storytelling virtuosos have spent more than a decade touring the world to critical acclaim and sold-out audiences who describe the experience as watching animation come to life. They have garnered six Critics’ Choice Awards and twelve Best of Fest awards, making it their business to step beyond words and into the hearts and imaginations of every audience member. In what the CBC describes as “Pure magic,” the unforgettable experience of a WONDERHEADS show is not to be missed.
