| Poor Lockhart Cobblestone is a kind shoemaker with a gentle heart yet little money. Despite his problems, the generous man helps an old beggar woman by giving her his last pair of shoes. Now Lockhart has only enough leather to make just a single pair. The penniless man sets the material out to work on the next morning. Upon his exit, out spring five eccentric and endearing elves. Mortz, Schwartz, Hazel, Gracie and Studebaker create the most incredible and magical shoes the town of Clankbottom has ever seen. This charming version is filled with silly roles, such as ballerina Loretta Le Pointe and Olympiad Zoom Corrigan, who both need specialized footwear. A number of delightful tunes include "We Love To Dance," "Smack, Smack, Smack," and the toe-tapping "Shoes." |
