Of Slippers and Spindles - Fairy Tale Retellings and Adaptations in Books, Film, and Theatre
Join fairy tale enthusiasts Cassie, Daurie, Laura, and Matt as they discuss the world of film and literary adaptations! Each month (or so) they will choose a specific fairy tale, and each week they will discuss a different book, movie, or musical adaptation of that fairy tale, exploring the way authors and artists retell, change, twist, conserve, and diversify the same stories over and over.
In loving memory, always, of Drew.

Ep. 94: Cinderella Wrap Up & Intro to The Princess and the Pea
Are you ready to leave the ball and climb some mattresses? Because it's time for a new tale! Drew and Cassie wrap up their final thoughts on Cinderella, including some themes that we've noticed that have been arising now that we have covered 10 different retellings of Cinderella. Then we begin our new story, The Princess and the Pea by Hans Christian Andersen. This tale is short and sweet, so we talk through its plot real quick before revealing the criteria for this new tale and which adaptations we'll be looking at through October!
