About
Based on the book by Jon Scieszka & illustrated by Lane Smith Adapted by Jason Hines Step into a wildly inventive world where fairy tales don’t quite go as planned. This world premiere adaptation of the best-selling 1992 children’s book The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith bursts onto the stage in a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud world premiere at the Center for Puppetry Arts. Packed with irreverent humor, unexpected twists, and a cast of delightfully unruly characters, this high-energy production gleefully turns classic fairy tales inside out. Familiar stories unravel, characters take over, and storytelling rules are tossed aside in a playful, anything-can-happen theatrical experience. Brought to life through inventive puppetry and bold, handcrafted design, this one-of-a-kind show captures the book’s signature chaos and charm that delivers a nostalgic nod to its ‘90s roots while feeling fresh, surprising, and completely original.
