As "Once Improv a Time" is the improvisational challenge, the presentation changes at each performance. These DIers have read and researched ten well known fairy tales and practiced incorporating parts of disparate stories with a surprise location and a team created lesson learned. Then one minute before the perform, the team picks three letters of the alphabet from a hat, creates a three word phrase beginning with the letters picked, and decides how to meld this phrase into their presentation. Cinderella meets Rumpelstiltskein on a space shuttle and learns that it's not nice to tease. An evil step sister picks on Jack for trading the cow for beans and learns to remember where her own shoes are.

What will Global Finals bring? It could be any combination of characters, events, and settings. But, whatever it is, the lesson learned by this team is: "Teamwork and practice pays off!"
