WHEN FAIRY TALES FALTER: THE PRETTIEST DUCKLING & OTHER MORAL AMBIGUITIES
A collection of short disrupted or tangential fairy tale plays
Pull back the curtain to the stories you thought you knew…

A lonely baker considers a risky deal with a witch…
A bear and girl are lost in the forest…
And a boy kinda regrets impulsively climbing that weird beanstalk in his back yard…
