The Writer's Fairytale (by Kindred Soles)

A writer creates an educational show about the structure of a story, with a fairy tale setting. All bets are off when the prince fights with his words, the princess is not all that she seems, and the evil queen just wants to show off. The duo of Aspie Works founder Justin Rielly and ex-Geva Comedy Improv artist Danielle Erway create this freeform love letter to writing, and what happens when “once upon a time” gets silly and fun.
