Based on the book by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith.
Adapted and Directed by Bill Massolia
Poor Jack. He has to use his wits to save himself from the terrible Giant, but a host of familiar fairytale characters keep messing up his plans—and then there’s that annoying Stinky Cheese Man! The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales deconstructs the tradition of the fairy tale. Characters slide in and out of tales; Cinderella rebuffs Rumpelstiltskin, and Goldilocks meets the Three Elephants. Nothing is quite the same as you remember it.
Length of Show: 60 minutes
Curriculum Connections: Reading, Writing, Language Arts, Story Telling
