“We pride ourselves on being nontraditional,” says Kathi Mallec, artistic director of the Bubblegum Playhouse. So it’s no wonder the company’s latest production, a comedic adaptation of the classic fairy tale “Rumpelstiltskin,” features a 6-foot baby, a musically inclined gnome with a driver’s license and a healthy dose of audience participation.
