Skazki:  A Spell of Ice and Snow is a world premiere musical, written by J. X. M. Corriss with music composed by Jonathan Blackshire. 

Mystic Evidence Productions presents the premiere of Skazki at the Boston Center for the Arts in April 2025.

In mythic Russia, Morozko—the Lord of Winter—holds dominion for over half a year. Certain death awaits any wayward souls who admit to being cold when he asks. Despite his tests, the young peasant girl Katya ventures into the depths of the taiga in search of medicine and magic to help her ailing family. Along the way she is helped by Ivan, a cursed soldier with no memory wandering his way through the world, and the legendary witch Baba Yaga, at once vengeful sorcerer and helpful ally. But as Morozko enlists the help of the dead and the deathless in his attempts to break Katya, the stage is set for an epic tale of peasants and princes, gods and spirits, and witches and riddles—set on the backdrop of endless winter nights.
