A Comparison of Snow White and Iron Hans
I am going to be comparing and contrasting Snow White with the play
Iron Hans (from Grimm tales) which was a successful school production.
We rehearsed it from October till November which was when we performed
the play to a real outside audience.
My contribution to the production of Iron Hans was as a King but also
I acted as a huntsman too. My roles as King was quite enjoyable but at
the same time difficult as my lines were split because some lines I
had to narrate and others were normal. I basically was used to inform
the audience on what was going on so I was a dramatic tool used to
keep the audience engaged. As huntsman I helped two other huntsmen
bail water out of the pond and capture the monster Iron Hans, we then
had to take him to the king's castle.
The story line includes a young boy who was a prince playing with his
ball which accidentally rolls in too the captured monster's cage, the
monster tells him to fetch the key and unlock him so the innocent boy
does it. The boy then realizes if he is caught he will be beaten and
pleads with Iron Hans to take him with him, Iron Hans who wants to
return the favour accepts the request and takes him. Iron Hans owns a
lovely golden pool and warns the boy not to touch it; the boy does not
listen so Iron Hans sends him away but tells him if he is in trouble
to shout for his name. The boy comes to a castle looking for work and
falls in love with the beautiful Princess, he thinks to himself if I
impress the King I will be able to marry his daughter. At the time the
King's kingdoms is at war and are out numbered by the enemy so what
the boy does is he calls Iron Hans and asks him to gather men to go
and help the king. The King is grateful offers the boy gold but he

Over the years, Snow White’s story has been told in numerous different versions then its original version in 1812 by the Grimm Brothers. The main basis of the story has remained the same. Only a few minor tweaks to the story have changed. The three versions of the story that are going to be analyzed are the original story “Little Snow White” by the Brothers Grimm, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” by Disney, and “Mirror, Mirror” by Disney also. They each were created in very different times and the original story has changed over the years to appeal to the audience of that time. No matter how many versions there are Snow White is considered, one of the most cherished fairy tales of all time. They each use different methods to get their story across by using different colors, word usage, and scenes.
