Family friendly - Fairytale - Funny

“As fresh, inventive and funny as ever... with wit and sophistication, and more important, human feeling.” – New York Daily News

Prince Dauntless’s outspoken Queen mother and silent King father decree that no one in the kingdom may marry until their son finds someone sensitive enough to be a true princess. Will goofy, awkward Winnifred the Woebegone from the swamp finally be the one to pass the seemingly-impossible test?

In this laugh-out-loud musical version of The Princess and the Pea, Once Upon a Mattress redefines what it takes to be a princess. Perfect for the whole family, this hilarious tale zany enough to launch the Broadway career of Carol Burnett celebrates the uniqueness in all of us.
