CHARITY

The Wolf: villain... or victim?

The Three Pigs: innocent... or at fault?

And what about the jurors—Miss Muffet, Bo Peep, Cinderella, Humpty Dumpty... upstanding

citizens, or characters with something to hide?

Presiding over it all is Judge Wise O. Al—but is justice truly on his side, or does he have secrets

of his own?

Meanwhile, the media is circling—a reporter, a newscaster, and a town crier. Are they here to

report the truth... or turn this courtroom into a full-blown circus?

And just wait until the surprise witness takes the stand...

All will be revealed in this rollicking, fast-paced, laugh-out-loud courtroom comedy—where fairy

tales collide and nothing is quite what it seems.
