It should be a piece of cake for a fairy godmother to tell the story of Snow White but her wand is bent and things aren’t going as they should. To make things worse, she’s interrupted by a couple of English policemen who are hot on the trail of two very devious and dangerous criminals — children who are causing no end of trouble in the forest.

Their names? Hansel and Gretel! Streptococcus doesn’t believe a word of it and neither do a well-behaved pair of kiddies in the audience who volunteer to help her tell Hansel and Gretel’s familiar tale.

Cody Dulland Erin Boston will direct the play.
