Synopsis: |
Once Upon a Mattress Music
by Mary Rodgers Lyrics by Marshall Barer Book by Jay Thompson, Dean
Fuller, Marshall Barer License this show Synopsis If you thought you
knew the story of "The Princess and The Pea," you may be in for a
walloping surprise! Did you know, for instance, that Princess
Winnifred actually swam the moat to reach Prince Dauntless the Drab?
Or that Lady Larken's love for Sir Harry provided a rather
compelling reason that she reach the bridal altar post haste? Or
that, in fact, it wasn't the pea at all that caused the princess a
sleepless night? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns
hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on
the familiar classic of royal courtship and comeuppance provides for
some side-splitting shenanigans. Chances are you'll never look at
fairy tales quite the same way again. |
