Murray State To Perform “Snow White”

snow_white

Murray State University Theatre’s annual children’s show this year is “Snow White” by Marjorie Sokoloff in the Robert E. Johnson Theatre at the Price Doyle Fine Arts Center on Murray State’s campus. Performances will be Oct. 1-2 at 9:30 a.m. and Oct. 5 at 2:30 p.m. Tickets are $3. Murray State students get in free with a student ID.

The Witch was the fairest one of all first, and she will not be silenced any longer. This updated version of the classic story unveils the villain’s perspective, from her tragic childhood to her quest for revenge. So how did the story really go? Join all seven quirky dwarves, a tongue-tied prince, a sassy mirror, a dancing chicken and, of course, Snow White, in a tale about beauty, friendship and happily-ever-afters with a twist.

“It’s great to perform a hilarious show for kids,” said Carter Parks, a junior theatre major from Mayfield, Kentucky, who will play several characters in the performance. “This is my first children’s show, and I’m excited to do it with such talented people. I’m also excited to deliver such an important message to kids, as we should teach them to love themselves always.”
