Shoreline Community College Theater presents the world premiere of Off We Fly Now which will be performed as a mixed media experience in collaboration with Shoreline’s Visual Communications Program to combine live action with animation.
Snow White, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and Sleeping Beauty, have found a way to escape from their centuries old fairy tales. Arriving in the “real world” they quickly attract the attention of the media and the public.
As the four attempt to discover the meaning of life, they end up becoming reality show celebrities. Then they begin to realize that the real world, similar to the fairy tale world, is full of tricks and traps. Fame, love, youth and marriage are each unsolved riddles.
Off We Fly Now challenges the boundaries between fairy tales and the truth. Perhaps, after all, the tales were written to prepare us for life in the real world.
“... and they lived happily ever after…”

Depicting a Disney character holding an obvious alcoholic drink and smoking is just asking for a lawsuit from the entertainment behemoth. Bad taste.
