Description

Enter a world where fairy tales shed their familiar facades and dive to Grimm depths. In Mary Zimmerman's The Secret in the Wings, a child is left with a babysitter who  reads a chilling array of tales that come alive, each more surreal and suspenseful than the last. From suitors trying to coax a princess’s laughter to love stories doomed by eerie prophecies, these twisted tales tease the dark corners of our imagination. Just as each story reaches its darkest point, it is swept away, leaving audiences hungry to know if happily-ever-after even exists. Through stunningly staged transformations, inventive humor, and an ensemble cast who bring dozens of characters to life, The Secret in the Wings promises a night of theatrical magic, mystery, and myth unlike anything you’ve seen. Don’t miss this journey into the shadows of your favorite tales where wonder and danger walk hand-in-hand!

Victoria School of the Arts is an Edmonton Public School Division Kindergarten through grade 12 Alternative Arts Program.

  • Provide students with a variety of approaches to learning methods of building connections between thinking, learning, knowing, and communicating
     

GOALS OF OUR PROGRAM
