Mother Goose is no fool. As soon as she discovers real werewolves are in this production, she makes a break for it and it looks like our show's over before it's even begun. But wait! Four adventurous audience members -- a fairy godmother, a witch, a prince, and a wolf -- save the day by acting out their own versions of Sleeping Beauty. With the participation of a helpful stage manager and other members of the audience, a good time is guaranteed for all -- it's not Mother Goose, but it is hilariously entertaining. (Note that this book includes both large-cast and small-cast versions.)
