- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 23 Nov, 2025 at 02:00 pm – Sun, 23 Nov, 2025 at 04:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The creeping emptiness known only as the Nothing is devouring their world, and the mighty Childlike Empress is fading. Her only hope lies with a human child, a quest she entrusts to a young, reluctant warrior: Atreyu. But this isn't just Atreyu's story; it's also the tale of Bastian Balthazar Bux, a shy, bullied boy who escapes into the pages of a mysterious book. As Bastian reads, he discovers he's not just an observer, but an integral part of Atreyu's perilous journey.

Adapted by David S. Craig from Michael Ende's beloved novel, The NeverEnding Story (Atreyu and the Great Quest) bursts onto the stage as a vibrant, imaginative spectacle that will ignite the imaginations of a new generation while sparking joyful nostalgia for another! 

For those who grew up in the 80s and 90s, prepare for a rush of memories (and trauma) as iconic moments spring to life: witness the majestic luckdragon Falkor soar, brave the treacherous Swamps of Sadness with Artax, and confront the enigmatic Gmork, all while avoiding the oncoming storm of THE NOTHING.

Join Atreyu on a breathtaking quest through a world of fantastical creatures and impossible challenges, as he seeks the cure for the Empress and battles against the encroaching despair. Meanwhile, Bastian, initially a passive reader, finds himself increasingly drawn into the unfolding drama, grappling with the incredible realization that his own choices are shaping Fantastica's destiny. 

This isn't just a play; it's a thrilling exploration of courage, imagination, and the profound connection between stories and our own lives. Will Atreyu succeed? Will Bastian find the strength to become the hero Fantastica desperately needs? Step into the world where dreams take flight and discover the magic that truly never ends!
