SYNOPSIS
An ambivalent Cinderella? A blood-thirsty
Little Red Riding Hood? A Prince Charming with a roving eye? A Witch...who
raps? They're all among the cockeyed characters that bring this production
to life. What begins as a lively irreverent fantasy in the style of “The
Princess Bride” becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility
and the stories we tell our children. One of Sondheim's most popular
works, this timeless yet relevant piece is a rare modern classic.
Sarah Elizabeth Allen makes her Village
Square directorial debut for this production with Camille Jones as musical
director. Together they lead the talented cast of more that 20 actors
through James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim's fractured fairy tale.
PLEASE NOTE: This production contains
mature subject matter during the second act.
