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></FONT></SPAN></P>
