THE IRON STAG KING - THE HOUSE THEATRE
Our unsuspecting hero, Casper Kent, is the son of a poor farmer. When an old storyteller reveals that Casper is the rightful heir to the throne, his life is threatened from all sides. Young Casper must escape the crownless, choose compatriots and question what is good and right for the land. Part one of this new trilogy follows him on his quest to lift the magical hammer that will unite or destroy them all.
