(Female, Comedic, Teens – 20s)
When Barb, a girl about twelve, gets lost in the woods, she finds herself trapped in the lair of Anise, the Spider Queen!

This is no easy task for the young storyteller, who finds herself pushing her imagination in ways she never thought possible. As Barb grows as a storyteller, so does her relationship with Anise. Their journey is one that explores love, loss, and the power of storytelling. It’s the second to last night of Barb’s imprisonment in Anise’s lair. During their time together, the two have grown very close, and Anise has even taught Barb how to leave stories into magical spider webs. This changes, however, when Anise pressures Barb into telling her a story about her mother.
