AOTCB The Stinky Cheese Man and other Stupid Fairytales

If you think that happy endings, moral lessons, and the power of goodness magically triumphing over the forces of evil are the stuff fairy tales are made of, The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Stupid Fairy Tales will make you think again. A riotous postmodern deconstruction of the genre, the 1992 children’s book by Jon Scieszka (author) and Lane Smith (illustrator), adapted for the stage by John Glore, is irreverent, cynical, sarcastic, and sardonic. These are not merely fractured fairytales, they’re completely cracked, and this is one children’s show, now in production at Acting Out Theatre Company, that adults will enjoy even more than the kids!
