Photos: First look at Hilliard Arts Council's THE STINKY CHEESE MAN
The Stingy Cheese Man runs Sept 20 - 29, 2024
The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales is a whimsical and hilarious play adaptation of the beloved children’s book by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith. This play, written by John Glore, takes well-known fairy tales and turns them on their heads with a series of absurd and comical twists. The play is narrated by Jack, from “Jack and the Beanstalk,” who guides the audience through a series of fractured fairy tales. Each story is a parody of a classic tale, featuring characters like the Stinky Cheese Man, who is avoided by everyone due to his terrible smell, and the Really Ugly Duckling, who grows up to be just a really ugly duck. Other tales include “Chicken Licken,” where the sky is literally falling, and “The Princess and the Bowling Ball,” where a prince uses a bowling ball to find his true love. The play is filled with witty narration, fun music, and a cast of quirky characters, making it a delightful experience for audiences of all ages.
