Once Upon a Mattress

About this event

Directed byRaye Lynn Mercerwith Choreography byClay Rice-Thomson(Moulin Rouge!, Newsies, Matilda, KING KONG).Many moons ago in a far-off place, Queen Aggravain decreed no couples could marry until her son, Prince Dauntless, found a bride. Princesses came from far and wide to win the hand of the prince, but none could pass the impossible tests given to them by the Queen. That is, until the “shy” swamp princess, Winnifred the Woebegone, ed up. Would she be able to pass the Sensitivity Test, marry her prince and help Lady Larken and Sir Harry to the altar? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on the classic tale The Princess and the Pea provides some side-splitting shenanigans. For after all, a princess is a delicate thing.Content Warning: Contains some innuendo.FPAC is proud to be an Art Pharmacy partner and Card to Culture participant.
