Thank you for coming. The house was full!

Strega Nona is the musical tale of a friendly magical witch who strives to cure the ills of her tiny Italian town. The town faces real problems when a local lug named Big Anthony sneaks a peek at Strega Nona’s magic book and uses Strega Nona’s magical ways for selfish means. When Big Anthony can’t turn off the magic pasta pot, pasta threatens to engulf the entire town—unless Strega Nona can save the day.
