Directed by Russ Borski, and with musical direction by Maria DiDonato, this Tony Award-winning musical begins with "Once upon a time..." and tells the intersecting stories of several Brothers Grimm and Charles Perrault fairy tales. Just when everyone's journey seems to be resolved, the characters' worlds are shattered, only to be recombined to show that nobody really lives "happily ever after." Audience members will recognize characters such as Jack and his beanstalk, Cinderella, Rapunzel, and Little Red Ridinghood. The story also has a Mysterious Man, a Witch, and a Narrator, among other colorful characters.

"The musical features a cast of 22 undergraduates, based in the Department of Theatre and Dance, and the cast is inclusive of other departments such as Film, Music, and Education," says Borski. "Besides the brilliant music and lyrics of Mr. Sondheim, the story explores deeper issues between parent and child, and shows how personal decisions of desire and greed can cause collateral damage in the ones we love the most."

The CSU cast includes Erin Ashdown (Lucinda), Tasha Brandt (Witch), Machala Comenschek (Jack's Mother), Kierstan Conway (Florinda), John Cox (Steward), Claudia Cromly (Baker's Wife), Chan Cunningham (Jack), Sonia Fonseca (Granny), Jaren Hodgson (Narrator), Libby Kendzerski (Cinderella), Alexander Koler (Cinderella's Prince), Zavier McLean (Wolf), Brooke Myers (Cinderella's Mother), Carter Nagy (Rapunzel's Prince), Emmett Podgorski (Cow Impostor), Maggie Raiff (Rapunzel), Sullivan Ratcliff (Baker), Mia Snyder (Giantesse), Suzanna Szabados (Cinderella's Stepmother), Jarrod Vullo (Cinderella's Father), and Katelyn Zeitz (Little Red Ridinghood).

Show times are Thursday through Saturday at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m. $5-$15 tickets are available by calling 216.241.6000, visiting playhousesquare.org<http://www.playhousesquare.org/multicategory/category/cleveland-state-university>, or at the State Theatre Ticket Office, located at 1519 Euclid Ave., Cleveland, OH 44115.
