Axis Theater Company
The Axis Theatre Company presents its 21st annual production of the beloved family holiday show, Seven in One Blow, or the Brave Little Kid.
Adapted from the classic fairy tale by The Brothers Grimm, this interactive winter play is conceived by Axis and directed by Randy Sharp, who also wrote the adaptation and composed the music. Though the poignant tale was created for kids, the Axis production—which teases out some of the many plausible subtexts—resonates equally well for adults.
Fridays and Thursday, December 12, at 7pm; Saturdays & Sundays at 3pm.
