The play is about what we face when we become seniors: dealing with loneliness, finding a purpose, money matters, housing and health, although the eyes of aging well known fairy-tale characters, and the solutions found by their queen, who resolves their issues by utilizing her lifelong obsession with beauty.
The Queen’s obsession with beauty has bankrupted the kingdom, the forest is now the size of a theme park, Sleeping Beauty has become a drug addict the Pigs have become porkers…they just sit and eat all day, and poor Rumpelstiltskin can no longer sew, he has severe arthritis.
How does she and her magic Mirror solve this? you have to see the play.
