Faerie Tale Theatre, fully Shelley Duvall's Faerie Tale Theatre, was a live action children's television series created by Shelley Duvall that ran from 1982 to 1987 retelling popular fairy tales. Shelley Duvall serves as narrator, host and executive producer of the program, and occasionally stars in episodes. The series consists of well-known actors and directors.
Faerie Tale Theatre was released on VHS in the late 1980s through mid 1990s, by Playhouse Video, CBS/Fox, and later Razz Ma Tazz Entertainment/Cabin Fever Entertainment.
From 2004 to 2006, Starmaker II released the DVD edition of the 26 episodes separately at first, next as a collection set of 26 discs, then in a 4-disc box set, and later in a 6-disc box set. Koch Vision currently owns the distribution rights, and in November 2006 licensed the rights worldwide (excluding DVDs in North America) to the British company 3DD Entertainment.
At a time when most other shows for children were either low-budget productions or product-inspired cartoons that were little more than half-hour commercials, this program set out to produce high-quality classic entertainment that children would enjoy. Hosted by Shelley Duval, this program featured some of the best-known stars in Hollywood performing adaptations of traditional stories. Written by Jean-Marc Rocher
