Trial of the Wicked Witch
"This play was fun to do. Comedic twists in a court room setting made for an interesting yet delightful production. Familiar fairy tale characters in a modern setting broadened my actors skills on stage, especially since they are middle school students. They were able to bridge familiar characters with an unfamiliar setting. The audience was delighted to be influenced by the cast members for their jury vote." -- Palombi Middle School, Lake Villa, IL

"The play offers so much in the way of character development, and our cast didn't let me down on this.  The community loved the play and the interaction with the audience was icing on the cake." -- Wautoma (WI) High School

Trial of the Wicked Witch
"The audience LOVED the show! We had so many compliments. These fairy tale characters are well known and its a kid-friendly show. This is a shorter production so we included a coffee and dessert bar at intermission. The actors and actresses are what makes this show a success or not. They have to be the character 100% for the audience to fully enjoy the show!" -- South Decatur Jr./Sr. High School, Greensburg, IN

Trial Of The Wicked Witch
This play is so much fun to do! You definitely need strong actors for the characters with lots of lines, but there are parts for all sorts of character strengths. The crowd really loved the performances and got really into the story. We are a middle school drama club and these kids acted better than some adults would for this show!

Fantastic Play!
This was my first time doing the senior play at our school, and I asked the students to pick the play they thought sounded best for us. We were able to cast the characters easily. I laughed so many times as we practiced lines. The performances made me laugh too even though I knew what was going to happen. It’s a really special play, and I would recommend it for any group with a lot of females involved. My only regret is not having more performances. So good!

Great play for community engagement High School and Middle School Friendly!
We had nothing but positive reviews after our show this past weekend! The community really loved the cheesy jokes and so did the kids. They really got to ham it up. I did this play with high schoolers and they had an absolute blast with it. We really were able to make it our own. The script and stage directions were very clear and easy to follow, this play is very easy to have characters doubled. The set is also very simple and can be as complex as you'd like!

The play for us ran for about an hour and a half with 10 minute intermission included. This is a great for a first year director who is trying to grow their program. Not only can it be a play, but it can be a musical too! Love this play so much, and I'm so sad it's over.

Total cast is about 21 characters, but we were able to function with 15 in the class.

If you are looking for something that is like shrek, but a little more lowkey and off the beaten path, this is the show for you!!!
