"A fabulous new version... much more appealing than the original tale... If plays for grownups were this good, no one would call the theatre dead." - Seattle's Child Magazine SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS may be the best known, best loved fairy tale of all time - an exciting saga of adventure, romance, jealousy, treachery and love. Produced in 1986 by the Seattle Children's Theatre, the original stage musical was a smashing success, playing to more than 20,000 people. This movie version, using most of the original stage cast, was photographed on location throughout the Northwest - in the forest of the North Cascades, on the Skykomish River, in the stately mansions of Seattle. The result is a stunning achievement: an intelligent and intriguing retelling of SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS with some delightful surprises for even the most devoted of the fans of the original Grimm Brothers' story. Some noteworthy differences between this video and the "Disney-style" retelling: Snow White doesn't simply rely on beauty. Snow White makes an intelligent decision about who she loves and why (the "Grumpy" equivalent). The "Dopey" character is the youngest Dwarf (here named Peg); she is a developmentally disabled adult who is treated by her siblings with love and respect. David Duvall received an Emmy nomination for "Best Original Music for Television" on this production. https://archive.org/details/SCV22_IA http://gregpalmer.com/plays_snow-whit... https://www.amazon.com/White-Dwarfs-S...
