An ambivalent Cinderella?  A blood-thirsty Little Red Ridinghood?  A  Prince Charming with a roving eye?  A Witch…who raps?  They’re all  among the cockeyed characters in James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim‘s fractured fairy tale.  When a Baker and his Wife learn they’ve been  cursed with childlessness by the Witch next door, they embark on a quest for the special objects required to break the spell, swindling, lying  to and stealing from Cinderella, Little Red, Rapunzel and Jack (the one  who climbed the beanstalk).  Everyone’s wish is granted at the end of  Act One, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them  later, with disastrous results.  What begins a lively irreverent fantasy in the style of The Princess Bride becomes a moving lesson about community responsibility and the stories we tell our children.
