Step into the world of magic with “Puffs,” a play based on the well-beloved series, “Harry Potter.” Oak Park High School’s theater program performed the play on the nights of Oct. 24-26.
The story follows a young boy named Wayne who travels to Hogwarts to learn magic. He is put into the house of Hufflepuff, where the story surrounds the idea of why people never liked Hufflepuffs, or “Puffs” for short.
Freshman crew member Sonia Hansen found the show enjoyable.
“[The play] was very fun!” Hansen said.“I think that while it was hard to follow [since I was backstage], I knew just enough to know that it was super funny and fun for both the actors and audience.”
Junior Kate Pipkins went to watch the play and shared her experience.
“The play was enjoyable, the plot was pretty straightforward and I really appreciated the costumes and set that was interesting and engaging,” Pipkins said. “I am not the largest fan of Harry Potter, [but] I’ve read a couple books and I’ve watched most of the movies quite a long time ago. If you are a Harry Potter fan I think it would be very enjoyable to get the subtle jokes and references. Overall, I thought it was an enjoyable and well put together production.”
