Franklin Ave Middle School Presents "Once Upon A Mattress"

Performances are March 18, 19 and 20.

Students at Franklin Ave Middle School provide a superb rendition of the musical "Once Upon A Mattress". Directed by Danielle Van Kampen, a theater major at Ramapo College, the show tells the delightful story of Prince Dauntless who must marry first so others in his kingdom can marry.  His over protective mother, Queen Aggravain, is doing everything in her power to stop him. Once Prince Dauntless meets Princess Winnifred of The Swamps,  a series of tests begin in which Princess Winnifred proves her worthiness and the two can marry.

The show starts at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday and at 2 p.m. on Sunday.
