Produced by Our Dramatic Solutions, the company of the playright's husband, Danny Truxaw, this delightful original work is being directed by Natasha Bloom first at the West Valley Playhouse, followed by the Whitmore/Lindley Theatre.
Brothers Grimm, Sisters Wild is a sweet show about why those brothers wrote down all those stories to begin with, and who helped them do it. Familiar fairy tales come to life, as the brothers come to realize the importance of what will become their lifes' work. It's appropriate for all ages, although recommended for ages 5 and up.
