Ichabod Crane is the new schoolmaster in town, but his snooty cosmopolitan ways rub some of the residents of Sleepy Hollow the wrong way. And… he’s getting awfully close to marrying Katrina Van Tassel, inheriting her father’s farm in the bargain. To get rid of him, the villagers will make sure that “Icky” meets their local legend – The Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow!

This highly theatrical adaptation blends the silly with the spooky, with lots of interaction for your students. Even though it's primarily a "fun show", there will still be some words and storytelling techniques that might be new for your students, and the show includes a live spelling bee as part of the action - with some of your kids onstage as participants.

At the same time, we've designed the show so that your littlest ones won't be too scared and your older students will still think it's funny and cool, making this a perfect show for summer camps, K-5 schools, and libraries and civic centers

Sleepy Hollow is also available as a "field trip show" at the Greenhouse Theater in Chicago - to make a booking for your group for one of those performances, follow this link to the Cinema Academy site and book online!
