The Journey Inside – New Musical Adventure

September 19-21, 2025

Orpheum Theatre • Sioux Falls, SD

A Story about Story and Imagination: Three sisters — Elsie, Lacie, and Tillie — bored out of their wits and desperate for adventure, cross paths with Cerulean, a mysterious boy with only a stick, a backpack, and a secret mission. Alongside them, Princess Avelia, searches for her lost sister, drawn by whispers of a hidden truth. As their questions open new doors, together they journey through strange lands and meet unexpected new friends, all leading to the shadowy cave of The Coachman, where nothing is what it seems. It is there they must face The Dragon.

This theatrical adventure weaves brand-new music into beloved moments and songs from Mystery, Lost in Vegas, Parables & Proverbs, The Passion and the Cross, and more. Expect heart, humor, danger, and wonder — all culminating in a surprise ending and major Lights Up announcement.

This video played prior to the start of our "Passion and the Cross" performances this year. People loved it! It was so fun that I thought I'd just post it "as is" right here. Plus, we can plug our sponsors one more time. And... btw, the Chef we are partnering with this September is Chef Domonique for our "Journey Inside" Food and Theatre show. ... See MoreSee Less
