The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales
By John Glore
Based on the Book by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith
Directed by Ed Cohn
Based on the book by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith, this hilarious play deconstructs the tradition of the fairy tale. Characters slide in and out of their tales, and nothing is quite as you remember it!
Poor Jack. He’s got to use his wits to save himself from the terrible Giant, so he begins telling his own versions of some very familiar stories: a tortoise racing a hair-growing hare; Cinderumplestiltskin; Little Red Running Shorts; and a couple of princesses who kiss frogs and sleep on peas. Jack must not only tell tales as fast as he can for as long as he can to avoid being eaten, but he must also overcome the disturbances caused by that pesky, bread-obsessed Red Hen and that annoying Stinky Cheese Man!
The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales shares the joys of making stories your own and creating new possibilities from the familiar.
