Once Upon a Mattress

If you thought you knew the story of "The Princess and The Pea," you may be in for a walloping surprise! Did you know that the Princess actually swam the moat to reach the Prince? Or that it wasn't the pea that caused her a sleepless night? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this is a rollicking spin on the familiar classic of royal courtship and comeuppance. You may never look at fairy tales quite the same way again. By our Youth Dept.
