Organizer

Ten Thousand Things Theater

In this moving, modern-day fairy tale, three young sisters are left in a forest by their woodcutter father and forced to find their way in the world. The sisters each make their own resolution: one walks away to find purpose, one sets off to find adventure, and one stays where she is to create a home. Years later—having circled the globe, crossed oceans, tamed wilds, and achieved greatness—the three sisters meet again, as women and equals.

Runtime of 80 minutes with no intermission.

Performance Venue

This performance is at Project Success’s office! It’s right next to Walker Art Center.
Address: 1 Groveland Terrace, Minneapolis, MN 55403

Themes

  • In this show, each sister chooses a different path for themselves, and they eventually return to each other, as more experienced people with stories to share. What do you think is good about people choosing their own paths, even if it means they are separated for a while?
