An original work, written by Steve Epp, Nathan Keepers and Dominique Serrand
 
Out of the Pan Into the Fire. Is a fairytale, but not one you’ve ever read before. It takes place in the days when wishing was still of some use, and also right now. There’s this kid named Thirteen, who’s kind of stupid, and not afraid of anything, and his sister Elsie, who’s really smart, but has never been around the block, and who isn’t actually his sister. They were both found in the garbage, by this old guy named Angelo, who is sort of an angel, or he might be a bird, or it could be that he’s just old, and really, really poor, and maybe a bit of a liar.
 
A lot of stuff happens to all of them, like growing up, as in Out of the Pan Into the Fire. It’s pretty funny, a little naïve, and then it gets scary, a bit grotesque, Grimm, you might say, and kind of brutal, painful, like it makes your heart hurt a little.
