CONGRATULATIONS TO VINNIE S. FROM CHATHAM!  He won 4 tickets to see The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales at SOPAC!  Please read more about the show below: 

The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales is coming to SOPAC on February 10th at 2PM, and it's sure to be a real treat for anyone who's ever read the hilarious book by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith (for which the show is based), and really for anyone who has ever read a fairy tale!   The show is a hilarious refresher on classic fairy tale characters who keep dropping in and out of each other’s stories!  The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tale retells – and wreaks havoc on – the stories we all thought we knew by heart.

Jack has a problem. He’s successfully grown an enormous beanstalk, scaled to the top, and stolen a golden harp and gold-laying goose from the sleeping giant. However, the giant has now awoken and Jack has scurried back down the beanstalk in the hopes of chopping it down before the giant can catch him. As the hungry giant catches up to Jack, Jack is forced to find ways to divert the giant’s attention in order to avoid becoming an afternoon snack. When he is unable to find a suitable hiding place, Jack convinces the giant that a good story or two would be the perfect way to begin a meal. And so it happens that Jack begins nervously telling his own versions of some very familiar stories.  

Cinderella rebuffs Rumpelstiltskin, Goldilocks meets the Three Elephants, there's some Little Red Running Shorts and nothing is quite the same as you remember it.  With each tale, the giant becomes more and more dissatisfied, and Jack must not only tell tales as fast as he can for as long as he can to avoid being eaten, but he must also overcome the disturbances caused by a pesky, bread obsessed Red Hen and a very smelly hero made of cheese.  The Stinky Cheese Man & Other Fairly Stupid Tales, both as a book and stage play, shares with its audience the joys of making stories your own and creating new possibilities for the familiar.
