Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is NOT the Story Theater of the Broadway show created by Paul Sills, and the actors from the show who are listed here (e.g., Melinda Dillon) and in the imdb.com entry for this title do not appear in this DVD. This is a group of scenes performed at the Yale School of Drama that are "inspired" by Sills' work and based on folk tales that Sills used. Acting students may find it interesting, but fans of the Broadway play will be confused at best, and disappointed.

Fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm come to vivid theatrical life in Paul Sills' innovative Yale Repertory Theater production. Taking simple, narrative stories - such classics as "The Golden Goose," "The Blue Light," "The Clever Gretel," "The Goose Girl," and "The Bremen Town Musicians" - Paul Sills eliminated the customary use of sets and costumes and relied instead on the transforming talents of his gifted actors. Utilizing gestures, mime, music and the actors' own imaginations, he has created a fresh and unique theater piece to present these timeless tales.
