Kidz Theater Presents: “The Taming of the Shoe”

Everyone knows that Mary Jane’s shop has the best shoes in the land. Even Goldilocks can find a pair that’s just right! Everyone also knows that you never, ever
ask about the rags Mary Jane wears on her own feet. Everyone, that is, except her pudding and pie wielding neighbor Georgie, who somehow manages to coax the story from her. Years ago, Mary Jane ran away from the loving father, a cobbler brought to poverty by famine, and she has been cursed ever since. Together with loyal yet outspoken customer Cinderella, Georgie and Mary Jane set out to see the one man — the most powerful in all the land — who may be able to help her: the Godfather. But what Mary Jane doesn’t know is that when she left, her father’s life
changed in another way, thanks to a precocious band of elves. Fairytale friends both new and familiar come together in this short play about love, friendship and of course… shoes!
