Witches and Kings
Time: Approximately 110-120 minutes
Cast: 15-20+ F, 9-20+ Male
In a time when kings ruled the land and knights fought dragons, women raged a battle of another kind…should they stand by and accept the fate they’ve been given? Or should they use their powers, risking it all against those who would call them witches?
Camelot—an idealistic sanctuary filled with monarchs and majesty, led by the famed King Arthur, whose Knights of the Round Table held themselves, and the kingdom, to a higher calling. But all is not as it seems when the mists of Avalon come rolling in, for those mists are filled with magic, and that magic is wielded by women—three extraordinary women, to be exact.
Guinevere—the seer who became queen of Camelot, and who’s love affair played a part in its destruction…Viviane—the Lady of the Lake, who gave Arthur the most powerful sword in the kingdom and used her own powers as an enchantress to help her adopted son escape his rage…and Morgana—the sorceress who would stop at nothing to seize the power she craved above all else. In this new adaptation of the Arthurian legend, the classic tale of love and betrayal, courage and treachery is told through the eyes of some of the most powerful women of Camelot, and asks the question…who ultimately wins in the battle between witches and kings?
At the Stroke of Midnight
Time: Approximately 45-60 minutes
Cast: 1+ M, 8+ F, 5-10+ any
We all know the classic tale of Cinderella... wicked stepmother, annoying stepsisters, a fairy godmother, glass slippers, a prince... Charming, isn’t it? But what if this time it wasn’t the same old Cinderella story? What if your audience could help the Fairy Godmother make choices that would change Cinderella's happily ever after, and everything leading up to it? In this Choose Your Own Adventure retelling of Cinderella, your audience will have a magical time choosing everything from the Stepsister's talents, to her animal helpers, to Cinderella's outfit for the ball, to the kind of dances at the ball, and even the way the Prince tries to stop Cinderella from getting away. But like all fairy magic, when the clock strikes midnight, everything goes back to the way it was before. And in the end, the Fairy Godmother luckily has a little magic left in her wand, allowing the audience to help Cinderella decide if her happily ever after includes marrying the prince, or something a little more unexpected.

So when a mysterious rabbit appears just as her latest suitor gets down on one knee, Cordelia is all too happy to follow—wherever the rabbit may lead.

But a chance encounter with a charming hat maker will change the course of Cordelia’s life…and her feelings about love. And when the King of Hearts announces a grand prize to whomever can behead the dreaded Jabberwock, Cordelia and her new friend use the magic around them to save Wonderland…and the Jabberwock’s head.
