Experience this dark fairytale from Matthew Bourne with this acclaimed stage adaptation.

She had a lot of time to practice with this partner because it was her year-old brother, Jacob. Last January, they sang a capella together at a concert in Indio, Calif. Brother Jake turns out to have a resonant voice and excellent pitch. Singing with his sister and a top-flight orchestra, he turned in a crowd-pleasing performance.
