2f, 2m / Musical, TYA/Jr. High/High School / Simple set Greedy
humans exploit the kindness of a magical gnome in this fractured
fairy tale based on the Brother's Grimm. An ambitious peasant will
say anything to convince the cash-strapped king to marry her lowly
daughter, even if it means pretending the girl knows how to spin
ordinary straw into priceless gold. Forced to spin or die, the
hapless girl begs a lovelorn gnome to save her with his magic. And
when her newfound "talent" leads to a royal marriage proposal, the
aspiring princess will promise the gnome anything to keep up the
deception. Even her firstborn child! Too late, she realizes the
only way to break her promise is to guess the identity of the
mysterious gnome before her time runs out and her subterfuge
catches up with her. "Suffice it to say that author Jeff Goode and
composer Jonathan Price...are an astonishingly talented team." -The
Bar Harbor Times
