Fairy Tales Were Never This Funny – Once Upon a Mattress Brings the Laughter!

Think you know The Princess and the Pea? Think again! Once Upon a Mattress flips the classic fairy tale upside down in this hilarious, high-energy musical that’s bursting with charm, cleverness, and contagious fun for all ages.

Meet Princess Winnifred—bold, boisterous, and anything but traditional. When she arrives to win the hand of the shy and sheltered Prince Dauntless, chaos erupts in the kingdom. With toe-tapping tunes, outrageous characters, and non-stop laughs, this is a royal romp that will have you grinning from start to finish.

This production is brought to life by a joyful cast of dedicated volunteer performers, whose passion, time, and talent shine in every scene. When you attend, you’re not just enjoying a night of musical comedy—you’re supporting local artistry and fueling the confidence of performers who give their all to entertain, inspire, and build community through live theatre.

Bring your family, your friends, and your sense of humor—seats are filling fast, and this is one fairy tale you don’t want to miss.
