Once Upon A Mattress
Book by Jay Thompson, Dean Fuller, Marshall Barer Lyrics by Marshall Barer Music by Mary Rodgers 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. "As fresh, inventive and funny as ever...ONCE UPON A MATTRESS shows you can retell fairy tales with wit and sophistication, and more important, human feeling." New York Daily News, "A hilariously nutty retelling of the beloved fairy tale THE PRINCESS AND THE PEA. The show itself is a musical comedy gem. MATTRESS is a masterpiece of its kind" Michael Portantiere, Theatermania, Director Jonathan Perry Rehearsal Schedule updated July 8 Cast List Queen Aggravain - Martha Miles King Sextimus the Silent - Doug Brinkman Nightengale of Smarkand -Bridgette Worthington Jester - Diana Cayler Princess Winnifred the Woebegone - Jodi Perry Sir Harry - Taylor Story Minstrel - Caleb Tracey Prince Dauntless - Jeff Young Lady Larken - Tiffany Taylor Wizard - Caleb Endicott Lady Mabelle - Danielle Danker Princess No. 12 - Tiffany Erickson Lady Rowena - Tracey Calascione Lady Merril - Melissa Fitzen Lady Lucille - Shauntel Pyper Chorus of Lords & Ladies - Jonathan Fitzen, AJ Salazar, Steve Murray, Morgan Cayler, Russ Poole, Nate Fitzen, Mitchell Pryor, Bill Henscheid Andrea Souza, Emily Bell, Megan Evans, Caitlin Bauder, Heather Ballantyne, Aby Ballantyne, Jewels Perry, Allison Walker-White, Erin Walker-White, Megan Walker-White, Breanna Burch, Abigail Erickson |
