| Grandma doesn't really like fairy tales - she prefers adventure stories about pirates and astronauts. So, when her grandkids ask for fairy tale bedtime stories, Grandma puts some pretty silly twists on them! 'Twice upon a time...' Grandma begins each goofy retelling of a once-familiar classic. Cindy-Rella is now an insufferable neat freak not inclined to leave her chores to attend the prince's barbecue, even if there will be a bouncy castle there. Grandma seems to have forgotten about the Big Bad Wolf, so her stories pull Big Bad Bear away from his porridge to threaten both the Three Little Pigs and Little Red Riding Pants. Even Goldilocks is confused about why she has cameo appearances in both these stories! Despite the children's occasional protests at Grandma's absurd revisions, they beg for more. She forges on to tell the tales of Snow White and the Four Dwarves (because four is plenty, thank you!), and Grumplegrapeskin, the magical goblin who wants nothing more than to have the game show host remember his name. You'll remember Grumplegrapeskin and all the rest of the kooky characters in this charming production of five fractured fairy tales that will really crack you up! |
