The Twelve

Written and Directed by Penelope Caywood

Some fairy tales ask you to wait for rescue. The Twelve is not that fairy tale. A new original musical inspired by The Twelve Dancing Princesses, The Twelve is built in the tradition of contemporary ensemble musicals—emotionally driven and unapologetically of this moment. In a kingdom where everyone is watched, ranked, and expected to perform perfection on demand, twelve sisters are spending their nights doing something the palace definitely didn’t authorize. When their mysteriously worn-out shoes raise suspicion, the kingdom wants answers. The sisters have a few questions of their own.
