LIVE: Puffs
Brownwood Lyric Theatre
Ever wonder what life was like for the other students at that famous school of witchcraft and wizardry? Puffs is a laugh-out-loud parody that flips the familiar story on its head, told from the perspective of the loyal, awkward, and often-overlooked house that rarely gets the glory. The show follows seven years in the lives of the “Puffs,” a group of well-meaning misfits just trying to survive magic school without getting swept up in someone else’s epic destiny. Packed with fast-paced comedy, heartwarming moments, and a few spells gone wrong, Puffs is perfect for anyone who’s ever felt like a side character—but still believes in friendship, bravery, and finding their place. Performance Dates & Showtimes (CST): Saturday, September 19, 2026 – 2:30 PM Saturday, September 19, 2026 – 7:30 PM Sunday, September 20, 2026 – 2:30 PM Sunday, September 20, 2026 – 7:30 PM Clever, heartfelt, and wildly funny, Puffs is a must-see for fantasy fans and comedy lovers alike.
