Can one of the fairytale characters we've all grown up with be a killer? Maybe they aren't all really who we think they are. Everyone is a suspect and all of the guests at Way Off Broadway are asked to help catch a killer.

Coppa, Sr. as Rumplestiltskin, Brian Kaider as Prince Charming, Pam Neely as the Evil Witch, Shannon Wells as Little Red Riding Hood, and Megan Elizabeth West as Gretel.
