Rumpelstiltskin’s Daughter

Everyone knows the famous Rumpelstiltskin story — a short guy spins straw into gold for some Miller’s Daughter. She marries a selfish greedy King and Rumpelstiltskin stomps himself into the ground! NOT a happy ending! Here’s a new TWIST to the classic fairy tale: What if Rumpelstiltskin ran away with the Miller’s Daughter?! What if they had a daughter? Could she spin GOLD like her father? If captured by the greedy King, Queen Mother and Duke, could this girl save a kingdom from poverty, starvation and suffering? This new musical, with music and lyrics by Tim Battle and book and lyrics by Robert Neal Marshall, is based on Diane Stanley’s award-winning book. Robert Neal Marshall also directs.
