About the Show
The Short Story A 100-year sleeping spell has been placed on Beauty! To break the spell the audience must convince Red Riding Hood to give up her cape, discover the secret under grandma’s bed, climb a beanstalk, and retrieve a golden spoon from a real giant!
Page Turner Adventures
Page Turner Adventures began when creators Riley Roam and Kenny Mikey wondered what would happen if they combined Interactive Storytelling with Circus Skills. Since then, they’ve been sparking imagination, curiosity and laughter through performances that involve the entire audience in comical quests of craziness.

Before the Show
What makes a fairy tale a fairy tale? Not fairies! Discuss with your students the common elements usually found in fairy tales.
Common Elements of Fairy Tales: • Often set in the past. • Typically incorporate clearly defined good characters and evil characters. • Involves magic elements, which may be magical people, animals, or objects. • May include objects, people, or events in threes. • The plot focuses on a problem or conflict that needs to be solved. • Often have happy endings, based on the resolution of the conflict or problem.
Read the Classics The Mixed-Up Fairy Tale combines elements from many classic stories. Your students will
enjoy the show more if they’re familiar with the original stories. Create fairy tale book baskets and have partners or small groups read them. Encourage them to look for the common
elements of fairy tales while reading. Have partners or small groups report their findings and compare and contrast how the elements are presented in each story.
Stories referenced in the show include: • Jack and the Beanstalk • Little Red Riding Hood • Cinderella • Sleeping Beauty • The Princess and the Pea • The Three Bears • The Three Little Pigs
Fractured Fairy Tales a fractured fairy tale uses fairy tales that you know and changes the characters, setting, points of view, or plot. Have students read some fractured fairy tales before the show and compare
and contrast the classic fairy tale and the fractured fairy tale. Some examples include:
• True Story of the Three Little Pigs by Jon Scieszka • The Wolf Who Cried Boy by Bob Hartman • Snoring Beauty by Bruce Hale
Before the Show
Theater etiquette is an important part of attending a live stage production. So
that all patrons have an enjoyable experience at the theater, please share these
guidelines with your students prior to attending the performance. Remind
students to be respectful of the performers and other audience members by
engaging in responsible behavior.
• You agree to be on time. Theater is great! It's live! It happens in the moment. You can't
rewind it. You are an important part of the show and you need to be there from the very
beginning. The actors are there, so you need to be there, too. Arriving 20 minutes before
show time is the standard rule.
• You agree to use the restroom before the show starts to avoid getting up and disrupting
the performance while it's happening. Once a class is seated, you may visit the restroom in
small groups prior to show time. Young students must be escorted.
• You agree not to talk or whisper during the show. If you whisper to your friends during the
show, you disrupt those around you, and quite possibly the actors. And, you might
miss something!
• You agree to participate. This includes laughing at appropriate times, clapping in
appreciation for the things and actors you like, and doing other things when invited by the
actors to do so. It also means paying attention to what's going on by listening and
watching closely.
• You agree to turn off all cell phones and other gadgets that may make noise during the
show.
• You agree not to take pictures or use recording devices of any kind during the show . The
material performed on stage is copyrighted material, and therefore protected under
copyright law from reproduction of any kind without written permission. In addition, the
Mahaffey Theater is a union house, and union rules prohibit the use of photography and
recording devices without prior consent.
• Finally, you agree to give the actors a full curtain call . A curtain call is the actors' final bow
at the end of the performance. It's your opportunity to show your appreciation for what
they've shared with you. Please wait until all the actors have taken their final bow before
exiting the theater. The ushers will assist you in finding the best route out of theater!
After the Show
Puzzling Stories Choose several of the fairy tales that your class read before the show. Use the story puzzle template below and fill in the characters, setting, and plot on the
puzzle pieces. TIP: Use three different colors of paper for characters, setting, and plot. Cut them out, mix them up, and hand them out to the class. Have students walk around and try to piece together the correct stories. Mix up the story pieces again and hand out to the class. This time have students create a mixed up fairy tale by combining different characters,
settings, and plots. For example: The big bad wolf + goes into a cottage and eats the porridge, breaks the chairs and falls asleep in the bed until he is woken up by bears + in a beautiful castle.
Have students create a storyboard that illustrates their new story.
After the Show
Mixed Up Headlines A reporter at the Fairytale News has mixed up all of the headlines. Students will have to help
him figure out which headline goes with the right fairy tale. Suggested book: The Fairytale News by Colin and Jacqui Hawkins
SAMPLE HEADLINES: • Mysterious Girl Attends Palace Ball (Cinderella) • Police Look Into Poisoned Apple, Queen Questioned (Snow White) • Stick and Straw Homes Destroyed in Suspected Tornado (The Three Little Pigs) • Giant Reports Stolen Heirloom (Jack and the Beanstalk) • Police Question Fairy in Spindle Fiasco (Sleeping Beauty) • Seven Miners Rescue Local Homeless Girl (Snow White) Create your own fairy tale headlines or write a headline for the story your small group created
in the Puzzling Stories engagement.
Write Your Own Fractured Fairy Tale
Have students choose their favorite fairy tale. Provide the two column graphic organizer found on the next page. Have students complete the story map on the left side. On the right side, have students determine what they will change to create their fractured
fairy tale. This will assist them in the planning of their new fairy tale. Give students time to plan, draft, revise, and edit their fractured fairy tale. Celebrate by having an author’s tea or other writing celebration in your classroom.
