A Perfectly Prickly Production!

DVJC Co-op tickled our fancies and funnybones with another "fractured fairy tale," The Princess and the Porcupine, at the Staircase Theatre, April 5-6.  Audiences giggled and guffawed at the flaky villagers and their Cabbage Festival, klutzy King Schmoe and his numerous nicknames for the ever-pouty Princess Perfect, and, of course, the horrific Two-Headed Monster of Bad Stuff with its ourtrageous Indian accent (one head only).  Many thanks go to Melanie R. for her wonderful direction, to the talented actors for their inspired performances,  and to all the DVJC parents and siblings who helped bring the tale of Puffinnetter "perfectly" to life.  See you at Timmy's!
