Synopsis
An American master of participation theatre has adapted this beloved Brothers Grimm tale, with its many levels of psychological truth, and presents it as a musical fantasy for audience ages 4 through 8. A group of actors solicits help from the young audience to perform this well-known fairy tale with its rich characters including a wise frog, a garrulous bush, the lively Briar Rose and her well-meaning but testy father. Briar Rose is blessed by the fairies of earth, wind and water, but the fairy of fire curses her with a slumber that lasts for a century. Briar Rose awakens to recognize "what she has never seen and live in joy." This is the archetypal story of timeless love and the virtues of patience.
