  • Description

    The highly acclaimed and rollicking hit comedy is about to get the big-screen treatment when “Puffs: Filmed Live Off Broadway” comes to U.S. cinemas for a two-day event this May. For seven years, a certain boy wizard went to wizard school. This, however, is not his story. This is the story of The Puffs… who just happened to be there too. A tale for anyone who has never been destined to save the world. 

    Fathom Events and Tilted Windmills Theatricals partner to present “Puffs: Filmed Live Off Broadway” in more than 600 U.S. cinemas on Wednesday, May 9 at 7:00 p.m. and Saturday, May 12 at 12:55 p.m. (all local times), through Fathom’s Digital Broadcast Network (DBN). 

    Produced by Tilted Windmills Theatricals’ two-time Tony Award® winner and UF alumnus John Arthur Pinckard (FABA '98) and Broadway veteran David Carpenter, “Puffs” is a Potter-inspired comedy for anyone who has ever felt like a secondary character in someone else’s story. The play gives audiences a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three new heroes just trying to make it through magic school.

    "Puffs" premiered in June 2016 at the UF School of Theatre + Dance through the Summer Repertory Theatre program, which partners with Tilted Windmills Theatricals. Pinckard and the rest of the production team were in residence for four weeks to workshop and perform "Puffs" at UF before it went to its Off-Broadway debut in New York City.
