“THEATRE WAS ALWAYS MY SAFE HAVEN GROWING UP, AND TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE STUDENTS OF ALL AGES CAN CONTINUE TO LEARN, GROW, AND FIND THEIR OWN VOICE IN THE THEATRE COMMUNITY IS A DREAM I DIDN’T THINK WOULD COME TRUE FOR A LONG TIME.” – CHANDRA GALLOWAY

The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon
Written by Don Zolidis
Directed by Chandra Galloway
June 21, 22, 23 – 28, 29, 30
Parkland College Second Stage Theatre

The fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm are turned on their heads in this fast-paced, rollicking ride as two narrators and several actors attempt to combine all 209 stories ranging from classics like Snow White, Cinderella, and Hansel and Gretel to more bizarre, obscure stories like The Devil’s Grandmother and The Girl Without Hands. A wild, free-form comedy with lots of audience participation and madcap fun.

Roles in the cast, crew, designers, and production team for this show will be filled entirely by students of all ages.

Congratulations to the cast of The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon!
