Description
Before Marvel and DC cross-stitched the stories within their respective universes, Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine delved into the multi-faceted fabric woven long ago by the Brothers Grimm. In this Tony-sweeping, internationally-lauded musical, a Baker and his Wife must reverse an infertility curse placed upon them by a surly witch. To appease the sorceress, they must obtain a white-as-milk cow, corn-yellow hair, a blood-tinted cape and a golden slipper. As they embark, they encounter Cinderella, Rapunzel and Little Red Riding Hood-each seeking their own fantastical item while under the oppressive reign of an indiscriminately murderous Giantess. (JF)
