A boy, a book, and a quest to save the world. The Neverending Story follows Bastian, a young boy of 10 who finds a mysterious book at a bookstore that comes more alive with each page. 

The world of Fantastica is in danger! The Childlike Empress is searching for a cure and the only hope is Atreyu, a young buffalo hunter. Along the way, he endures heartbreak, discovers joy, and encounters a cast of fascinating characters: evil creatures Gmork and Ygramul, helpful beings like Falkor and the Gnomics, crotchety old Morla, and more. While reading the story, Bastian finds out that he has more similarities with Atreyu than meet the eye. Can Bastian’s imagination alone save Fantastica from the Nothing?

The Neverending Story was first commissioned and produced by Imagination Stage, Janet Stanford, artistic director, and the Seattle Children's Theatre, Linda Hartzell, artistic director.

The stage adaptation of The Neverending Story has been authorized by Verlag für Kindertheater Uwe, Weitendorf, Hamburg.
