Rumpelstiltskin's Daughter is a delightful 55 minute musical comedy for kids from 5 to 105, packed with comedy, action, adventure, dance & songs. This project originally started as an exercise at the famous Lincoln Center Theatre Directors' Lab in New York and was then presented as an Equity Workshop at Boys Choir of Harlem in New York. From there, a critically acclaimed full scale workshop was mounted at the Chesapeake Arts Center in Maryland and most recently at the National Theatre in Washington, DC as part of their Saturday Morning Series for children. Rumpelstiltskin's Daughter, a savvy spin on the classic fairy tale, has earned a "Critic's Choice" from the Baltimore City Paper and an "Area's Best Bet" from both the Annapolis Capital and Washington Post. Hailed as "a stylistic cross between Disney's Beauty and the Beast and Stephen Sondheim's Into The Woods with broad humor, winning characters, an uplifting message and catchy tunes" by the Baltimore Sun. What if Rumpelstiltskin married the Miller's Daughter and they had a child of their own? Rumpelstiltskin's Daughter delivers a positive message and features a modern, independent heroine who uses courage, intellect and wit to change a King and save an entire Kingdom.
