About
A funny, flexible fairy tale comedy with something for everyone!
It's bedtime bedlam when a washed up clown tries to sell three unruly princesses on something other than their fairy tale favorites. Cinderella, Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty...these are just a few beloved classics that Truffaldino will NOT be reading tonight because you've heard them a zillion times already and, frankly, he's sick of them. Instead, he'll be dusting off four of the weirdest, wildest and downright hilarious fairy tales you've never even heard of. But, will his new spin on these old tales be enough to get his sneaky nieces asleep in time? This funny and flexible adaptation of Giambattista Basile's classic, The Tale of Tales, is told in the slapstick tradition of classic Italian theatre with a modern twist.
