The Fairy Tale Monologues
A princess with a trail of bodies behind her, a witch and a prince in a torrid affair, a husband searching for a magic potion, a baker's wife desperately trying to find happiness--this dark musical fairy tale flips old stories on their heads with blood, sex, friendship, and true love. From Riot Productions, the award winning, critically acclaimed women's theatre, this original new musical by Sarah Alida LeClair (Most Outstanding World Premiere, Best Ensemble) combines her signature witty, balanced writing with sweeping romantic music and a focus on the real women behind these ancient stories: sex positive and queer; lonely, seeking genuine friendship; and carrying the weight of depression.
The Fairy Tale Monologues was the Outstanding World Premiere at the San Diego Fringe Festival World Fringe Congress 2026, making this the third win in three years for this company and this playwright after 2025 Best Ensemble (Death and Murder and Poison and Scene) and 2024 Audition Sides. Sarah LeClair is a critically acclaimed, award winning William Male Foundation Fellow for Playwriting and Producing.
Audiences at Fringe said :
"Sharp, witty, clever, raw."
"Incredible performances across the board by the actors and musicians."
"Nuanced, complicated people with real struggles, flaws and heart."
The Extended Edition opens at the MOXIE Theatre Venue in generous support from the Conrad Prebys Foundation and Kellie Evans O'Connor, July 31-August 9, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., Sundays at 2 p.m.
