Act Out - The Ever After

The Newington Children's Theatre Company is proud to present their fourth one-act of their Act Out 2018-19 season, What Could go Wrong the Night Before Christmas? Performances are Friday, March 1, at 7pm and Saturday, March 2, at 2pm. All tickets are $10.

A cheesy talk show host invites traditional fairy tale characters who have been estranged for 20 years to reconcile on live television. From Snow White and the Evil Queen to Cinderella and her middle-aged Ugly Stepsisters, this TV show parody asks the question, Cant we all just get along? The talk show is punctuated by questions from obnoxious studio audience members and hilarious infomercials for fairy tale related products. Even Jiminy Cricket-now an occupational therapist and author of My Life as Your Conscience-makes a guest appearance to lend his professional opinion. Complete with a trash-talking clairvoyant mirror, an unfortunate prince who is turning slowly back into a frog, and many other wacky fractured fairy tale bits!

Performances will take place at NCTC located at 743 North Mountain Road in Newington. For more information, please call 860.666.NCTC or visit www.NCTCArts.org.
