About the Show

Necessary I.T.E.M.S. presents this piece which is loosely based on 'The Frog Prince' by Brothers Grimm. Part of the 2018 Planet Connections Festivity.

The Queen orders her children Prince and Princess to find spouses. They use the ancient method of shooting an arrow in order to locate their soul mates. The Princess’ arrow hits a frog that is really a man under a spell. But the Man Frog has a pessimistic outlook on love and marriage and is not willing to marry the princess. Matters complicate as the royals cannot agree on a solution and the local witch loses her temper and turns everyone into frogs.

Charming, Fairy tale, Basic, Sharp writing, Fun

See it if you are in the mood for a smart fairy tale that takes a few deft shots at contemporary life but keeps its message basic: love each other.

Don't see it if you are looking for high drama or complex characters. Read more

Quirky, Amusing

See it if you like finding actors to follow and you enjoy supporting their work. The show was enjoyable and had some funny moments.

Don't see it if you don't like whimsical productions.

Disappointing, Theme has some potential

See it if you uncritically enjoy fairy/morality tales.

Don't see it if you want a cast that has more than one actor with professional chops. And think that Fairy Tales are best written in rhyme. Read more
