Folsom’s Sutter Street Theatre brings the magic of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to the stage in Historic Folsom for one final weekend starting Saturday night.
Directed by Sutter Street Theatre’s own Allen Schmeltz, the local production of this family musical contains a zany, wisecracking Mirror who will only answer if spoken to in rhyme, as well as a whole court full of funny and bubbling characters.
Accoring to Sutter Street’s playbill, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs hums with 14 lively songs, including a scary forest ballet. Snow White runs away from the evil Queen and seeks refuge with seven little miners. But the Queen and her sister, a once-powerful witch, need “a locket from the pocket of a princess that is pure.”
The local musical is based on the story by Brother’s Grimm. Schmeltz, Sutter Street Theatre’s award-winning Associate Artistic Director, has added many of his own touches to the production. Sutter Street Theatre’s award-winning Artistic Director and CEO Connie Mockenhaupt has added her own magic to the music and choreopgraphy to the play as well.
The show runs Saturdays and Sundays at 1:00 p.m. through May 21. Reservations can be made and ticket
