Upcoming Auditions for Kids & Teens
Fairy Tale Courtroom by Dana Proulx
Synopsis: This extremely adaptable comedy shows the other side of several familiar fairy tales when one of their biggest villains, the Wicked Witch is brought to trial. The witch has been frolicking from fairy tale to fairy tale wreaking havoc as she tries to prevent the general public from living happily ever after. Hear the personal accounts of what happened, told in testimonies and flashback sequences, from characters such as Snow White, Dorothy, Sleeping Beauty, the Three Pigs, Little Red Riding Hood and many others, including the Witch herself, as each trial unfolds.
