This sprightly version of Snow White ran over
three years at New York’s Theatre East, a record
unprecedented in the history of children’s theatre. It has
played to the delight of children of all ages from Toronto
to Los Angeles to Miami. The exceptional score and the
caring relatedness of the young girl and the dwarfs
distinguish this version of the classic Brothers Grimm
fairytale.
“The best
children’s show in town. Without slavishly following the
Disney film (the dwarfs here are more like the Lost Boys in
Peter Pan than little old men), Elsa Rael’s script and
Michael Valenti’s score find much of the film’s charm”
— N.Y. Times
“A
thoroughly diverting and remarkably tuneful variation of the
famed classic ... bursting with invention, originality and,
perhaps most extraordinary of all, a musical score that
ranks with much that is heard in the major Broadway houses.”
— Players Magazine.
