A festival of fairy tales and giants

Firebone Theatre presents “Long, Long, Ago,” a musical mash up of three popular fairy tales beginning on Dec. 5 at Space 38|39.

This production combines Oscar Wilde’s “The Selfish Giant,” Charles Perrault’s “The Fairies,” and the Grimm Brothers’ “Hans Dumm” into a unique holiday festival series of performances for all ages. Families will enjoy music, laughter, and the ever-comforting milk and cookies.
