Happily Never After invites you into the fairy tales you grew up with – just not the versions you remember.
This character monologue show gives iconic storybook figures the chance to finally speak for themselves, sharing the moments that were left out or glossed over. Listen as the Magic Mirror on the wall tells you what REALLY went down in the castle, watch Quasimodo jump into the modern dating world, and hear from the cursed objects from Beauty and the Beast that had the… less savory jobs. Join us to hear the fairy tales you always thought you knew… but not quite the way you remember them.
Also featuring a performance by:
•Book Club is an improv show inspired by a book they didn’t read.
Each show, a guest shares their thoughts on a recent book they’ve read. They talk about how the book moved them, what stuck with them, and the moral questions it raised. Then they do dumb improv.
It’s a book club with no homework!
Always indie, always fresh, always funny!
