Heavier Than Air Family Theatre’s “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” comes to musical life for six performances, June 17-18, 24-25.

The premiere is 7 p.m. June 17 at the Green River Community College Performing Arts Building, located in the center of the campus, 12401 SE 320th St., Auburn.

The musical play is an original adaptation written especially for the theatre by Bob Hubley and Ross Modlin. The original songs and lyrics by Hubley add to the magic of the story, dance and song numbers.

“Snow White and the Seven Dwarf’s is a delightful tale filled with laughter and excitement. Expect the unexpected from this fairy tale where the dwarf’s are organic farmers, the evil queen has comical sisters, Hoitghty-Toighty and Fru-Fru, where Old King Cole, Little Red Riding Hood and the Old Woman in a Shoe make special stage appearances. A happy ending becomes an absurd conclusion, but nothing is ever quite what it seems.

Performance also are scheduled for 7 p.m. June 18, 24 and 25, with 3 p.m. matinees on Saturdays.

For advance tickets, call 253-833-9111, ext. 2400, during normal business hours. Tickets are $8 per person (children and seniors) and doors open a half-hour before scheduled performance time.
