ABOUT THE SHOW
Our story begins in a faraway kingdom long ago.
Due to an unhappy curse, King Sextimus is unable to speak.
Meanwhile, his terror-of-a-wife, Queen Aggravain, has taken over control of the kingdom.
Most importantly, in an attempt to keep Prince Dauntless single, she has decreed that only the princess that can pass her test may marry her son.
Further, no one else in the kingdom may marry until Prince Dauntless does.
Lady Larken and Sir Harry are extremely disturbed by this fact since Lady Larken is now pregnant with Sir Harry's baby.
Luckily, Sir Harry is able to find an amazing princess, Winnifred the Woebegone.
She instantly catches the attention of Prince Dauntless.
Mary Rodger’s classic "ONCE UPON A MATTRESS" is a delightful musical and a fan favorite!
