About the play
It’s a bunch of kids in a basement playing dress up. It’s what happens when the Disney is sucked out of the fairy tale. It’s dozens of worlds and it's one child’s imagination. It’s wild.

Mary Zimmerman’s The Secret in the Wings is a playful and imaginative celebration of the power of stories. Scenes, songs, striking visuals, and dance collide to tell a series of lesser known fairy tales from a range of countries. All but one of the stories are split in half as the play fans in and then out again in a whirlwind of theatrical creativity.

Nine performers, 75 costumes, and over 100 props bring to life the deep darkness and the powerful love that only fairy tales can contain.

This production is the final thesis presentation for Elizabeth Hobbs (MFA Directing), Camille Paris (MFA Theatre Design), and Charlie Peters (MFA Theatre Practice).

Visit the Dig Deeper website for cast and crew bios, facts about the play, and other fun ways to engage the production!
