Along the lines of the lamppost post (punny!) below: it’s not so hard to create a Narnian costume, even a group one. This trio used an expert hand in theatrical makeup along with some simple costumes and props: fur coat, Halloween wig, white garments, and a nicely painted cardboard box, with hangers. It gets the …
Here we have one of the most overlooked characters in The Lion, the Witch, and Wardrobe: the lamppost. The young lady portraying it clearly takes her job very seriously. She shows no emotion, as a pole made of metal and glass would, and should. Other members of the play’s cast might have danced and cavorted …

In the books it serves as Narnia’s steadfast ally, a typical Medieval European country ruled by humans that lacks the magic ** and the Talking Beasts of Narnia.

In part two of this series I’m going to concentrate on more… aspirational Maugrims. For example, who says Maugrim has to be male? None of these were from a Narnia production, as far as I know, but I’m including them to show the variation when costuming a wolf character. Now, imagine the impact on stage …
After all this time I’ve realized I’ve never described the Narniaworld water park. The water amusement area was intended to be an integral adjunct to the greater park and was built at the same time. It is themed around the book The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. There is a separate admission fee or …
I was so sure this edition of the Chronicles was real! That is, they were once for sale in a bookstore and over the decades eventually scanned and uploaded to the internet. Alas, they are not. These designs are the work of graphic artist M. S. Corley and were created in 2009, a date decades …
