“Crimson Fairy Tales,” the new play by the St. Andrew’s-Sewanee Players, will open at 7 p.m., Friday, Oct. 25, in McCrory Hall for the Performing Arts at SAS.
A collaborative venture with the 32 cast members, director John Holleman sent each of the actors home with a copy of one of Andrew Lang’s “Color Fairy Books” earlier in the semester. The assignment was to select any story, read it and then tell it to the cast the next day. Many stories later, Holleman and the ensemble knitted together their own take on the fairy tales. This is the SAS Players’ first home production following their critically acclaimed performances at the Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland, this summer.
The play will also be performed at 7 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 26, and 4 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 27. Tickets will be available at the box office; they are $7 for adults and $5 for children under 10; SAS students get in for free.
