style="COLOR: #333333; mso-bidi-font-size: 9.0pt">An ambivalent Cinderella? A
blood-thirsty Little Red Ridinghood? A Prince Charming with a roving eye? A
Witch...who raps? They're all among the cockeyed characters in <A
href="http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000106">James Lapine</A>
and <A href="http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000106">Stephen
Sondheim</A>'s fractured fairy tale. When a Baker and his Wife learn they've
been cursed with childlessness by the Witch next door, they embark on a quest
for the special objects required to break the spell, swindling, lying to and
stealing from Cinderella, Little Red, Rapunzel and Jack (the one who climbed the
beanstalk). Everyone's wish is granted at the end of Act One, but the
consequences of their actions return to haunt them later, with disastrous
results. What begins a lively irreverent fantasy in the style of <I>The Princess
Bride</I> becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility and the stories
we tell our children.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
