The Spinsters

The Ugly Stepsisters cordially invite you back to the Palace, just like the good old days. Doesn’t everyone love a ball? The pageantry, the elegance, the romance… but this time its their ball, their rules, and the world’s most infamous step-siblings are ready to dish the dirt. What scandals hide within the glittering façade? What was Cinderella really like? Are the stepsisters really vapid? Vindictive?… Victims?

Small Matters Productions’ Sterling Award-winning show (Outstanding Costume Design & Outstanding Multimedia design) is now an even BIGGER & BADDER feast of mesmerizing movement, magical dresses, and stunning shadow puppetry. A deliciously disruptive dark comedy for adults brought to life by some of the most innovative designers and creators from across Western Canada.

Written & performed by Christine Lesiak (FOR SCIENCE!) & Tara Travis (Erika the Red) | Full Creative Team
