Rose and the Rime

Sacred Fools Theater
1076 Lillian Way Los Angeles

The tiny Michigan town of Radio Falls has been trapped in perpetual winter for a generation. Snow and ice coat every tree branch and telephone wire, and the constant blizzard surrounding the town means there's no way in or out. The last moment of heated passion brought the town its only remaining youth: a young girl named Rose. It is up to her to save Radio Falls from the vicious curse of the Rime Witch. Using a mix of physicality, music, puppetry and projection animation, Sacred Fools Theater brings this beloved original myth to life.

"...Sidney lightly guides this piece without too many bumps leaving lead actress Amy Rapp (Rose) to immerse herself in the role of the delightfully naive child who before our eyes subtly grows into a young woman whose desire to do the right thing comes into conflict when she is personally affected by tragedy. Notably, Andy Hirsch as Uncle Roger offers up the real gravitas in a singularly moving performance"

"...The fairy tale is an effective form of storytelling for many reasons, but the primary one is that everybody is already familiar with it from childhood. A lot can be done with this format - as in Lapine and Sondheim's Into the Woods, where the self-reflective analysis of the characters follows the "happily ever after" curtain of Act 1. The current production at Sacred Fools, Rose and the Rime, tells a simple story with creative flair, but in the end it might be too simplistic to be memorable."
