Under Attack! (2017)

Program Notes


Inspired by the Battle of Hoth in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, Under Attack! is divided into three parts:


Part 1 - Rebel Base: Alarm bells warn of the Empire's presence and start a flurry of activity as the Rebels scramble to action.

Part 2 - Snowspeeders: Our adrenaline-filled heroes glide over the tranquil frozen terrain to engage their enemy.

Part 3 - Battle: Imperial walkers stomp towards the Rebel base as our heroes do all they can to stop the onslaught.
