SNOW WHITE & THE SEVEN DWARVES
BELCONNEN THEATRE
5th - 15th OCTOBER 2011
From the writing/directing team behind Goldilocks, Red Riding Hood, Ali Baba & the Forty Thieves, and Hansel & Gretel, this is a new production of the classic Brothers Grimm tale. Updated for a modern audience, and suitable for all ages, Snow White & the Seven Dwarves is fantastic holiday fun for all the family.
Snow White is named as The Fairest of Them All by the Magic Mirror, to the dismay of her stepmother, the Evil Queen, who demands Snow White be kidnapped and abandoned in the forest. There Snow White meets the Seven Dwarves, and agrees to help them around the house in return for protecting her. The Evil Queen learns that Snow White is still the Fairest of Them All, and so takes a poison apple to the Dwarves’ house, where she plans to give it Snow White. The Prince hears about this, and rushes to Snow White’s defence. With the Seven Dwarves grumbling about the effect of the Carbon Tax on their mining activities, a Magic Mirror who has a liking for glass cleaner, and a Prince who is desperate to meet a princess, only a beauty pageant can finally decide who really is the Fairest of Them All.
Written by Canberra playwright Peter McDonald, and featuring an original score by Adam Bluhm.
