Produktbeschreibung

A Short Comedy Adapted for the Stage and Based on the Story by Charles Perrault

ACTOR'S EDITION

Young Tom finds himself alone in the world: no home, no work, nothing left but a cat. But this turns out to be no ordinary feline. "I'll serve you faithfully," says Puss. "All I ask is a pair of boots. Your success will be my success." Nothing is too difficult for Puss in Boots! Tom goes from rags to riches, becomes the Marquis of Carabas, and wins the heart of Princess Rose. But soon after Tom and the princess become engaged, circumstances lead Princess Rose to believe Tom is really an ogre in disguise. To give herself time to find a way out, she requires Tom to pass three impossible tests. Puss is on it! First, Puss has to help Tom bake the finest cake in the world. Next, Puss has to help Tom solve a complex riddle. Finally, Puss faces the greatest challenge yet: to help Tom win the Annual Race of the Flying Balloons. Will this prove too great a task?

Gwen Adams is a writer, playwright, speaker, and Visiting Assistant Professor of Theology at the Augustine Institute. She is the author of By an Unexpected Way: Stories of the New Evangelization (Augustine Institute Press, 2019). With experience in parish, diocesan, school and university settings, she has produced plays, taught history, literature, and writing, and offered courses on the New Evangelization, Catholic Education, and Reform and Renewal within the Catholic Church. Directing credits include A Midsummer Night's Dream, Uncle Vanya, and Life Is a Dream. Her master's thesis focused on fairytales; her dissertation gathered interviews with men and women about parish renewal. When she's not inventing funny, hopeful stories, she's retelling the stories of others, past and present, unexpected and full of wonder.
