The Stinky Cheese Man & Other Fairly Stupid Tales with Griffen Theatre

The Stinky Cheese Man brings the wonderfully warped world of Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith’s beloved book to the stage. Filled with fractured fairy tales, unexpected endings and characters who refuse to follow the rules, the book has delighted readers by turning familiar stories completely upside down.

Now, Griffin Theatre brings that same playful spirit to life in a fast-paced theatrical production. Jack, the Giant, the Princess and, of course, the Stinky Cheese Man tumble through a collection of twisted tales as they poke fun at the fairy tales we all know. With plenty of humor, audience interaction and theatrical surprises along the way, this is a show where you never quite know which story will go sideways next.

Come early for a little storybook silliness! Arrive an hour before the show for storytelling, book giveaways and fun activities with Alaska Children’s Museum. Then, after the curtain falls, keep the fun going with a Milk & Cookie Reception and a chance to meet The Stinky Cheese Man and the cast in person!

And whatever you do, don’t skip the Cake Walk! Kids can dance, laugh and strut their stuff for a chance to take home some amazing prizes. It’s going to be cheesy. It’s going to be silly.
