Grimmz Fairy Tales

Jay and Will Grimmz, the hip-hop fable story dance-pop sensation, have come back home to the city where they grew up to give a concert. They’re known not just for their sounds, but for their powerful storytelling, an inventive remix of familiar classics. The brothers put a modern spin on valuable life lessons in Snow White and the Seven Shawties, Down with Rapunzel, Hanzel & Gretel: Lost in the Hood, and their featured first Granny-winning song, Break, Cinderella, Break!

Under the direction of Christopher Parks, the Experiential Theater Company is dedicated to creating high quality theater opportunities for young audiences. Student and family audiences typically come to the theater expecting to see a play, but what they find out very quickly is that they are there to be in a play. The Experiential Theater Company is founded upon quality storytelling which is evocative and thought-provoking. When the audience enters the theater they are transported into a different world guided by our actors and designers. While in that world they are invited to participate in the creation of an artistic performance.

“Grimmz Fairy Tales puts the rap in Rapunzel, leaves Cinderella hip-hoppin’ in new shoes, gets Snow White slammin’ and Hansel and Gretel jammin’." -The Charlotte Observer

"The music, the choreography, and the lively acting of the cast was entertaining and certainly captivating for the young audience whose members sung along and danced in their seats throughout the performance." -CVNC Online Arts
