Description

See "Snow White" Written by Greg Banks and directed by Jimmy Blais at Centaur Theatre.

Get ready to see Snow White like never before. This fast-paced, physically inventive adaptation tosses the glass coffin and the damsel-in-distress tropes out the window. With just two actors playing everyone—yes, including the Queen, the Huntsman, the Prince, and all seven dwarves—this is a high-energy, shape-shifting ride through the fairy tale you thought you knew.

In this version, Snow White is not waiting around for rescue. She is sharp, curious, and fully in charge of her story. The show breaks away from old-school ideas of beauty and who gets to be the hero, reimagining Snow White as a bold, self-determined character who navigates the world with brains, courage, and a whole lot of heart.

Funny, surprising, and packed with theatrical magic, Snow White invites us to look in the mirror and ask: what if we rewrote the rules?

  • Review Phase for Personnel Targeted (one pre-show and one post-show workshop (60 min. each) will be offered to each participating class. these dynamic theatre workshops will use theatre and creativity to explore themes of standing up for yourself and others, justice, and community care. workshops will take place in the classroom and will be scheduled individually by each school., date to be determined, 60 min, School, in-person)
