Featuring the Red & Black Players high-school troupe; directed by Tupper Arts’ Director of Performing Arts George Cordes
The high-school thespians of the Red & Black Players present Once, in the Time of Trolls, a one-act play by Sandra Fenichel Asher based on Norwegian folk tales.
The Red & Black Players and Tupper Arts are excited to partner with The Wild Center in honor of their exhibit Trolls: Save the Humans, with our performances leading into the final weekend of the fantastically successful exhibit! Normally at the Tupper Lake Middle/High School, the performances will instead take place in the beautiful Flammer Theater at The Wild Center, 45 Museum Drive, Tupper Lake.
"Happily ever after" takes on new meaning as Katrina goes in search of her Prince, held captive by an evil Troll Princess in a dreary castle east of the sun and west of the moon. Katrina's journey brings her to the homes of three wise women who share hilarious stories—complete with marriage-minded mares and a nose three ells long—of how they have found contentment by "doing what pleases others," "doing what pleases me," or "doing nothing at all." With their guidance and a boost from the Four Winds, will Katrina defeat the Troll Princess and rescue the Prince? The adventure concludes with a surprising promise guaranteed to please audiences of all ages!
