Grimm's Nightmare

Opening October 28 - This is Grimm's Nightmare. A book that should never have been printed. Grimm's Nightmare takes you into the dark originals of the world's most famous fairy tales — but not as you know them. Greeted by the Pied Piper, you will experience six chilling tales anew. In the middle of it you become part of the story — with objects you carry and an ending that calls the beginning into question. What did Jacob Grimm really write down in his last days of life? How did you get mixed up in this? Read on — if you dare. An aged Jacob Grimm sits at his desk. For weeks he has been working on the entry for "fruit" in his dictionary of the German language. A life's work, begun with his brother Wilhelm. But the brother is dead. Has been for four years. And for four years Jacob has not slept. Every night the same images. Figures breaking out of the woods. Blood on white snow. Children laughing where they should be screaming. Dwarves singing in the dark. Thorns reaching for him. And always his dead brother's voice: "It's not the way you think. It's not the way we wrote it down."
