About the Author

Hello, my name is Rio and I'm a Senior earning my degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a minor in Theatre. This is my first time presenting my work in such a manor, and I want to thank my professor Dr. Trinquet du Lys for providing me with the tools to participate in such a thing.

Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement

For our final project, we were asked to create or rewrite a fairy tale with a contemporary teenage audience in mind. We had to include gender studies, feminist theory or an approved theory of our own in our work. I chose to rewrite the fairy tale Snow White expanding on the religious themes included in the original work, for a darker, more gruesome tale that teenagers might enjoy. In my research so far, I more about the brothers Grimm and the background surrounding the Grimm's fairy tales. I learned about 19th century Germany, as well as the balance the country held between their Christian faith and pagan ancestry.
