A new community theater group will stage its first production in Winston-Salem in January. Red Door Drama Society will present “The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane” by Kate DiCamillo.

The play will use both live and recorded music to tell the story of Edward, a toy rabbit whose adventures take him to the bottom of the ocean and through 1920s and 1930s America.

Red Door Drama Society is a nonprofit organization founded in 2023 to give young actors more opportunities to perform on stage. The productions on Saturday, Jan. 20 and Sunday, Jan. 21 will be presented at Reynolds Place Theatre inside Milton Rhodes Center for the Arts. Showtimes are 6 p.m. on Saturday and 1 p.m. + 7:30 p.m. on Sunday.

The production is suitable for all ages. Tickets are $16 for children + seniors and $19 for adults. They are available online or at the box office before the show.
