The supremely bratty Prince Rupert and the equally obnoxious Princess Iphigenia have been exiled to the wild woods of Wychwood and cant return home until they find true love.  But who would love such spoiled brats?  Could it be Rapunzel and her brother Bill, trapped in an enchanted tower because they refused to get a haircut?  Or perhaps Elton and his sister Ernestine, peasant children who sell all the familys electronics for a measly five beans that might be magic?  With a fairy-tale committee that includes a super-cool big bad wolf and a bumbling fairy godmother making the rules, this romp through the forest of Wychwood is filled with twists and turns.  With unforgettable characters like Paprika (the lost Spice Girl) and a pair of paparazzi desperate for a photo of Rapunzel, A Hairy Tale will have you laughing until the curtain falls and everyone (okay, almost everyone) has learned the meaning of true love, true sacrifice and truly hilarious storytelling.
