A modern musical twist on the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales.

Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Little Red Riding Hood and other well-known fairytale characters are interwoven with the story of a baker and his wife – whose longing for a child is thwarted by the witch who lives next door. As they venture into the woods, curses are broken and wishes granted; but what comes after happily-ever-after?
