Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is a musical theatre with music and lyrics by Frank Churchill and Larry Morey, and additional music and lyrics by Jay Blackton and Joe Cook, and book by Cook. Adapted from the Disney 1937 animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs – which in turn had been based on the Grimm's fairy tale "Snow White" – about a princess banished from her kingdom by her vain stepmother, and she comes to live with seven dwarfs in their woodland home.
First produced in 1969, the show carries much of the film's score over, by Churchill and Morey, along with four new songs by Blackton and Cook. It ran a total of 106 performances.
