Mu dives further into its Asian American musical theater initiative with this Tony Award winner that turns classic fairytales on their heads. A baker (Randy Reyes) and his wife (Sheena Janson) seek to break a witch’s (Katie Bradley) evil curse, sending them on a raucous journey through the woods where they cross paths with Cinderella (Sara Ochs), Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood (Suzie Juul), and Jack (Maxwell Thao) and his beanstalk. But 'happily ever after' is not always what it seems.
In a Mu-inspired twist on this modern classic musical, the casting, costumes, and staging are re-imagined from an Asian American perspective, giving even the show’s most seasoned fans something new to enjoy. Get your tickets today for Mu’s biggest production ever!
