THE CAT IN THE BOOTS July 27, 7pm, Main Square The production Metamorphoses. Cat in the Boots presents a new interpretation of the story we all know from the fairy tale by Charles Perrault. As the title suggests, every character undergoes some sort of transformation. An ordinary backyard cat, having received a pair of boots, becomes a wily factotum to his master, guiding him on his way from poverty to fame and fortune. Miller John, without a penny to his name, turns into the glamorous Marquis de Carabas. The ruthless sorcerer proudly displays his occult powers, transmuting himself into a lion and a mouse. Finally Charles Perrault himself, whom we know as a fabulist, puts on his boots and roams the king's domain as an intendent to Louis XIV. The dancers, too, undergo metamorphoses, as they put on the next costume and switch between impersonating peasants and courtiers. More MISTER TWARDOWSKI.
