Swiss Family Robinson Goes to Denver
On Monday March 1, at the Fox Aurora Theatre in Denver, the original cast (with Jake Walker) will be doing an abbreviated hour-long reading of Swiss Family Robinson. The idea is to drum up some interest in the play in the Denver area.
There have been some exciting changes. First of all, Ariel is an actual human girl. In the original version, she was a mysterious island spirit. In the new version, she’s a girl that was shipwrecked just like the family, and as a way of coping, dresses her self in leaves and flowers and makes believe she’s a powerful island spirit. Luckily for Fritz, she decides to stop pretending and be human. Fritz gets the girl.
