Invisible fair folk will wander through the Edwardsburg Performing Art Center this weekend as Edwardsburg High School presents “Rumpelstiltskin.”

There will be three performances at the PAC beginning at 7:30 p.m. Friday. Additional performances are at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and a matinee 2 p.m. Sunday.

Cost is $7 for adults and $5 for students and senior citizens. Families of five or more can get in for a flat rate of $25. Children under three are free. Tickets can be purchased at the door.

The fair folk, who can only be seen if their heads are not covered, help tell the story of Rumpelstiltskin. If their heads are covered no one on stage can see them and they are only seen when they want to be.

“Rumpelstiltskin” is a two-act play with a brief 15-minute intermission.
