A fast paced, irreverent, highly comedic take on the origins of the world’s best known fairy tales presented by An Grianán Youth Theatre’s senior members.
The Brothers Grimm, Will and Jacob, are not yet the famous fairy-tale writers of history. They’re con men who can’t get a job in any respectable college. What’s more, their attempts to record the folk stories of the countryside are failing miserably. A chance encounter with a fugitive by the name of Cinderella leads them on a quest to find a mythical book of stories that can give its owner great powers. The vain, cruel Prince Charming and his vicious minions Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel and Goldilocks are soon chasing them through an enchanted forest.
