This week Tayla is joined by Liz Gotauco, YS librarian at the Cumberland Public Library and creator of the TikTok F*cked Up Fairy Tales. They talk about Liz’s experience sharing these takes on classic fairy tales online and what is the possible future for FUFT. They also discuss Avatar the Last Airbender, Shakespeare, and musical improv. During The Last Chapter they discuss: What fairytale/folktale would you like to see retold from another character’s perspective?
