Quintessence Theatre Group kicks off its 8th Season with a new family series. A World Premiere of a modern adaptation of, Aesop's Fables, by Lee Cortopassi.
It's freaky and fun! Glittery boots, lots of variations on sex and preference, and even a stripper pole front and center means this one is not gonna be a light family musical. If the phrase 'think BARBARELLA meets ROCKY HORROR' makes you shiver in anticipation, then reserve your seats now.
This story is universal, but the intricate score and stellar cast are unique and astounding.
