Adapted by Claudia Haas, “The Fisherman and His Wife” is an interactive show for young audiences that follows a fisherman who hits the jackpot when he stumbles upon a magic talking fish. The simple, sweet fisherman is content to continue his way of life, but his ambitious wife is determined to take advantage of their good fortune. Narrated by Scat, the magical fish with a flair for jazz, this couple discovers the consequences of being greedy with the help of the audience.

Senior theatre major, Andrew Bittenbender from Floyd’s Knob, Indiana, is the director of the show.
