The alumni of Aesop Academy, a school for nursery rhyme characters, are having a reunion. Unfortunately, so are the alumni of Grimm High, their cross-town rivals... and both gatherings have been scheduled for the same time and place! Bitter enemies — like Peter and the Wolf, Toto and the Witch, and Jack and the cow he sold for magic beans — face off. Old grudges are rekindled, and tensions run high. The powder keg explodes when the Cat is killed (and not by curiosity!), followed by Piggy, whose melodramatic death scene causes someone to observe, “Sheesh! What a ham!” And in the middle of all this chaos, all Queen can say is “Another one bites the dust!” There’s no end to the laughs as the two warring schools team up to solve the mystery... or risk suffering the same fate! The jokes and twists abound in this delightful romp that is great fun for kids and adults alike!

We had the most fun with that play; it was so clever and witty. We put it on for the 5th and 6th graders during the day and they loved it, even though they didn’t know that they didn’t know most of the jokes! And the teachers were cracking up at the more adult lines. This is a very funny script! This show will ROCK YOU!
When I read it, I thought it was brilliant, and when we did our first table reading with the cast, they were in tears reading the script. It is hilarious for all ages, and easy to produce! This show was thoroughly enjoyed by both cast and audience members, with its fast-paced storyline and incredibly witty references to classic storybook characters and events. Storybook Reunion Murders is an ABSOLUTE JOY! Julie Miller, Clinton County Youth Theatre Director, IN
The cast and I think The Storybook Reunion Murders is hilarious. I work with 7th and 8th graders, and this really fit their sense of humor. You have no idea how much I appreciate a funny, simple play that is totally appropriate for a school setting. It’s one of the best our school has done! It was the perfect blend of humor for both adults and kids. Jennifer Tanner, Grace Lutheran School, Jacksonville, FL
To call The Storybook Reunion Murders ‘charming’ does not suffice... It is engrossing, witty, appealing, resonating, memorable, a triumph. I have no doubt that the Brothers Grimm and Aesop themselves would be enlivened and enthralled by this creation. I was thoroughly captivated. Dean Hunter, Civic Theatre of Greater Lafayette, IN
