Written by Second City creative director Carly Heffernan and directed by Cherissa Richards, this world premiere panto is a twisted take on the classic fairy tale.

When a dim-witted prince accidentally discovers her plight, it sets in motion a string of events that will unravel the original story in surprising and wonderful way. Naughty performances at 7:30 p.m. on November 22 and 23, November 27 to December 1 (8 p.m. performance on November 29), December 11 to 14, and December 18 to 22, with a 2 p.m. matinee performance on December 10.
