“Tatterhood”

Book and lyrics by Julia Fisher
Music by Vickey McBride
Direction by Tammy Shanley

Tatterhood and Sunniva think they understand why their mother never lets them leave their castle. But when the twin princesses set out on a quest to rescue their kidnapped goat, they learn there is much more to the story than the Queen let on. Magic and danger lurk in the forest as the sisters encounter conniving trolls, condescending townspeople, a kick-lining witch, and nefarious princes…all of whom force the sheltered girls to confront how the outside world really sees them. Featuring original songs, live musical accompaniment, and daring swordplay, “Tatterhood” is a reimagining of a Norwegian fairy tale about sisterhood, identity, and trust in oneself.
