 Snow White and the Seven Amigos
Through August 7
Magik Theatre
420 S. Alamo
Based on the classic Grimm Brothers fairy tale, this musical spoof takes place long ago in the mountains of Central Mexico. The Duke of Valeciana and his daughter Snow White live in a palace high on the hill overlooking Guanajuato. One day the Duke brings home a beautiful but vain bride who carries with her an enchanted mirror. When the mirror tells the Duchess that Snow White is the "fairest of all" she becomes obsessed with getting rid of her stepdaughter. Snow White must flee the city where she befriends seven amigos who work the mines. They take her in and try to protect her, and the rest is a story that can only come to life onstage at The Magik Theatre. www.magiktheatre.org
