Out of Shadowland premieres on July 9 at the Hangar Stage in Lost River Delta. The show is described as:
“Out of Shadowland” is an original tale about a shy, soft-spoken girl who must learn to overcome her doubts and fears through the power of her imagination, and the courage she discovers in her heart. Created expressly for the Hangar Stage, this new musical show with colorful visuals, dynamic scenes and powerful live performances offers Guests a unique experience.
