Mary Zimmerman's The Secret in the Wings adapts a group of lesser-known fairy tales to create a theatrical work that sets their dark mystery against her signature wit and humor. The framing story concerns a child and the frightening babysitter with whom her parents leave her. As the babysitter reads from a book, the characters in each of the tales materialize, with each tale breaking off just at its bleakest moment before giving way to the next one.

THE SECRET IN THE WINGS is produced by special arrangement with BRET ADAMS, LTD., 448 West 44th Street, New York, NY  10036. www.bretadamsltd.net 

THE SECRET IN THE WINGS was originally written and directed by Mary Zimmerman for the Lookingglass Theatre Company.
