The doting husband (played by Alex Metz) picks the greens for his expecting wife and is caught by the Witch. As punishment, when Rapunzel is born, she is re- luctantly given to the Witch for the husband’s crime of stealing the Witch’s garden greens. Rapunzel, (played by Julia Ma- cey) grows up in a tall, ivory tow- er and soon a Prince (played also by Alex Metz) appears and wants to save Rapunzel. But the Witch has heard them speaking and cuts off Rapunzel’s hair and ban- ishes her to the forest Julia Macy as Rapunzel is shown at the top of the tower during a PAR performance of “"Rap-Punzel by Take the Stage Players at the Back Mountain Memorial Library.
