This delightfully musical story theater tale strives to answer the questions: who was Rumpelstiltskin? Did he spin and if he spun was it actually straw he was spinning? Was the king a good king or a bad king? Was the girl's father a chronic fibber or was he just a victim of his time and socioeconomic standing? Was the girl an innocent dupe and were her broken promises acceptable considering the circumstances? These seemingly complex questions will most likely go unanswered but all – young and old alike – will have a marvelous time reading, listening, and singing along to this wonderfully fractured tale by Parents’ Gold Award Winning musical artist and author Keith Torgan.
