Six cast members, (none older
than 9 years of age) rhymed their
way through the fourth and last
of the plays for this summer by
the Take the Stage Players.
“Rap- Punzel” was a funny and
“pun-filled” version of the classic
fairy tale.
Rappers, played by Grace
Washsey and Lily Matthews,
didn’t miss a beat narrating the
story of a Wife, (played by Sarah
Gurzynski), demanding vegeta-
ble greens from the Witch's
(played by Evelyn Toennes), Gar-
den.
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

Back Mountain Memorial Library. From left, are Evelyn Toennes as
the Witch, Lily Matthews as Rapper, Alex Metz as Prince, Grace

The Prince, stricken from the
Witch’s magic, is soon discovered
by Rapunzel and her tears wash
away the “bad” magic and all live
“happily-ever-after.”
