Galli's Fairytale Theater Presents THE FROG PRINCE

Galli's Fairytale Theater will enchant young audiences with Galli's Frog Prince, an uplifting remake of the original Grimm story. The play is for kids from 3 and up and will start at 3 p.m. in Galli's midtown theater at 38 W. 38 Street, between 5th and 6th Avenues, Manhattan.

Galli's Frog Prince gives some new perspectives on the classic tale and encourages children to stand up for themselves, overcome self-doubts, and be courageous. The frog engages its audience in fun interaction until he finally changes into a prince to everyone's delight. This play, while quite humorous, leaves audiences spellbound by the life lessons it reveals. Everyone feels part of the story. The audience can also meet the fairy tale characters at the end of each show in its intimate, and cozy, 55-seat theater.

Playwright, clown, and director Johannes Galli has been bringing fairy tales to kids for almost 25 years. Believing that fairy tales are healing for children, he uses the original story but changes the "grim" version into a humorous play that entertains kids and adults alike and has a fun and educating message in the end.

"Galli's Fairytale Theater is one of our city's greatest resources for young children and their families," said Virginia Connor, head of St. Hilda's & St. Hugh's independent episcopal day school.
