Spalding Theatre Presents "Once Upon A Mattress" featuring Laurel/Columbia Teens Tricia Goudreau, Malachi White, Sophia Anastasi and Blake Green
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! Starring Junior Julia
Rach as Princess Winnifred the Woebegone and Freshman Christopher Decker as
Prince Dauntless the Drab. Directed by Jacki Dixon. $10 for adults, $7
for children under 7. March 28th, 29th and April 4th, 5th at 7:00pm.
March 30th at 2:00pm. Refreshments will be available during intermission. For
