Junior Cast (Grades 1-6)
Will justice be served when fairytale characters we know and love meet each other in the courtroom? The audience will serve as the jury, deciding how the play ends! Goldilocks in the defendant, on trial for breaking and entering the home of the plaintiffs - you guessed it: the three bears. As their attorneys work to prove their clients’ cases, other fairytale characters are called to testify as witnesses, including Hansel and Gretel, Jack and his Cow, and even Granny and the Big Bad Wolf … but can any of these witnesses be trusted, and more importantly, is Goldilocks guilty or innocent? Plead your case with PSP this winter!

CHARACTER BREAKDOWN
GOLDILOCKS is the defendant, and she’s either sweet as pie or an evil mastermind depending on what you believe.
TOM THUMB (male-presenting) or THUMBELINA (female-presenting) is the prosecutor, clearly trying to make up for a small stature with a big presence.
HANSEL is the brother of Gretel, who clearly has a directional problem.
GRETEL is the sister of Hansel, who clearly has a … well, a gingerbread problem.
PAPA BEAR is a grumpy patriarch of the Bear family, who would rather be hibernating.
MOMMA BEAR is the warm and protective matriarch of the Bear family.
BABY BEAR is not a baby, okay?! Four and seven-eighths years old next Tuesday afternoon is not a baby.
JUDGE FARMER is a good ole’ southerner - a strong drawl is a plus!
HENNY PENNY is a defensy-wencey attorney-worney, who tends to be quite rhymey-whimey.
THE COW is a pilates instructor and general fitness enthusiast.
JACK is the cow’s former BFF, and feeling incredibly guilty about the way things ended.
GRANNY is a sweet little old lady who, well, can’t see.
LITTLE RED is a little girl with a big temper and a short fuse.
THE WOLF is either big and bad or slick and cool, depending on what you believe.
THE BAILIFF is the big-voiced keeper of truth.
