Basketcase: A Classic Tale in Reverse

A fairy-taled scope on the very real issue of domestic violence and spousal abuse, Basketcase, a Classic Tale in Reverse tells an age old story in an empowering new direction. The royal wedding is over, and Prince Adam and his very new and royally inexperienced Princess Olive of Sidney are ready for happily-ever-after. The two are in love and have everything they need or ever could want, until a very unusual chain of events destroys the couple's good fortune overnight. Adam and Olive awake to find that the Land of Sidney is not how they remembered it and that there is no record either of them has ever existed. Their brand new home has become decrepit and is falling apart and their physical appearances have grown ugly and withered. With no explanation as to what might have caused the changes, Olive and Adam find they handle the unfortunate events very differently from one another. Their true colors guide them in opposite directions while their relationship with each other is put to the ultimate test.
