The Brothers Grimm hit the stage with an epic fairytale about wishes, family and the choices we make. The story follows a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King's Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone's wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.
Please note that this musical is rated PG-13 by Music Theatre International.
- Act 1 follows the well-known storylines and ends with a "happily ever after."
- Act 2 is more contemplative and darker, delving into the consequences of our choices and other more grown-up themes.
It is perfectly acceptable for younger audience members to attend only Act 1, which will provide a complete musical theater experience and a satisfying story.
Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
