Rapunzel puts a new “twist” on the classic tale about the girl with the long golden hair.

By:

The cast of Downtown Cabaret Theatre's Rapunzel is having a blast in rehearsals. The TYA musicals puts a new "twist" on the classic tale about the girl with the long golden hair. When young Rapunzel has been locked in a tower by a wicked enchantress, it takes a young hero to help her escape, and that's just the beginning of the story!
