The University of Montana Western’s Theatre Department and the Bank of Commerce Performing Arts Series are thrilled to present the Missoula Children’s Theatre production of “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” on Saturday, February 1, 2025.
The Missoula Children’s Theatre presents “Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs”, an original adaptation of the classic fairy tale. A young princess named Show White finds herself in peril when her step-mother, the Queen, is told by her Magic Mirror that the princess is fairer than she! Aided by her two Henchmen and a band of evil Bats, the Queen plots to get rid of Snow White. Snow White escapes from the Queen and from the Black Forest Creatures with help from Witless the Woodsman, and finds a home with the Seven Dwarfs. When the Queen learns of Snow White’s whereabouts, she attempts to poison Snow White. But the Queen’s evil plans are thwarted when Snow White’s fearless Forest Friends, her father King Backwards, the Seven Dwarfs and the Prince come to her rescue.
“Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” was written and conceived by Jim Caron, with music written and arranged by Michael McGill, additional music by Don Collins, and additional dialogue by Jeff Hall and Matt Loehrke.
