The Legend of Sleepy Hollow The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Katheryn Shultz Miller. Here is the spooky classic story by Washington Irving, presented with all the thrills, chills, and laughs that keep young audiences on the edge of their seats. For more than 200 years, the exciting story of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman has thrilled and delighted readers of all ages. Washington Irving made the Sleepy Hollow Legend popular; however, it is believed that the legend may be based on a German folktale. The tale of the headless horseman has become an American classic and it is with great pleasure that we present it to you.
The storybook revolves around the main characters—the bumbling schoolteacher Ichabod, the coquettish Katrina, and Ichabod's brutish rival, Brom Bones. As much fun as the play presents, it saves the best for last—the ride of the headless horseman. This adaptation remains dedicated to the spirit of the original work yet expertly involves young people with lots of suspense and comedy. A perfect Halloween treat, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is exciting family entertainment anytime. Hope to see you there! Performances are November 2nd at 7:30 and November 3rd at 3:00.
