Rapunzel lives with a wicked Enchantress, who keeps her locked in a tower, hidden from her rightful reign in The Kingdom.
But even though isolated, Rapunzel knows that she has been created for better things!
With the help of her flying friends, and a group of unscrupulous Hoodlums, Rapunzel escapes from the Enchantress and makes her way back to her parents, the King and Queen.
Will the Gypsy Prince be part of her “happy ever after?”
Join Cornerstone as it brings this classic tale of hope, honesty, discernment, and love to the stage with a large cast of singing and dancing hoodlums, witches, royalty, citizens and, of course, the golden haired Rapunzel.
The spring production by Cornerstone Youth Theatre opens this weekend with performances open to the public Friday through Sunday.
The show returns to the stage at the First Church of the Nazarene, at 2 McVicar St. in Red Deer, next weekend as well.
The troupe will also perform school age performances on Monday and Wednesday next week.
