Play information: Fairy Tale Courtroom by Dana Proulx
This extremely adaptable comedy shows the other side of several familiar fairy tales, when two of their biggest villains, the Big Bad Wolf and the Wicked Witch, are brought to trial. Both the Wolf and the Witch have been frolicking from fairy tale to fairy tale, wreaking havoc as they try to prevent the general public from living happily ever after. Hear the personal accounts of what happened, told in testimonies and flashback sequences, from characters such as Snow White, Dorothy, Sleeping Beauty, the Three Pigs, Little Red Riding Hood, and many others, including the Witch and the Wolf themselves, as each trial unfolds. The audience is the jury, so each trial has two endings, depending on the verdict. The trials can be performed separately, with a few small cuts for a running time of approximately thirty minutes each, or together with no cuts for a running time of about one hour and fifteen minutes.
If you are only interested in being on the Tech Crew, you do not need to come to auditions, you just need to return your commitment contract to Miss Gibson and and fill out an audition form by the audition dates. You can drop your signed committment contract off in the main office to be put in Miss Gibson's mailbox. Please, be aware that this production may not require a very large tech crew.
Drama WILL conflict with most sports: You will NOT be able to do drama and a sport.
If you have any questions or if any conflicts arise *after* you have committed to Drama, please have your parent/guardian email Miss Gibson ASAP and/or provide her with a written note explaining the conflict.
