This is a musical that was created to show three main fairytales, Cinderella, Red Riding Hood, and Jack the Giant Slayer and how they are connected because of a baker and his wife.

Such a fun story! The first half is how we know the stories, while the second half is after the "happily ever after."

We had a copy of this which I think I read more often than I rewatched the Great Performances VHS tape of the original Broadway Cast. I don't know that it would make much sense to anyone who hadn't seen the show, but I used it as a way to 'jump' to my favorite part of the show. As an adult, I appreciate that the illustrations riff on but are not exact reproductions of the original set, costume design, or even the appearance of the cast.

It's the collection of short stories. So damn creepy, the stories and the graphic :( I did not recommended you to read this book at night. Please read the trigger warning before you read this.

I really enjoyed this screenplay! My family got it for me for Mother’s Day to read before the show comes to Seattle this upcoming season. Now to go watch it on Disney+!
