This unique twist on "The Princess and the Pea" stars 25 local youth actors working alongside artists from NextStop’s professional company.

"Hans Christian Andersen's classic fairy tale gets a twisted retelling in this lighthearted musical romp. The meek Prince Dauntless is looking for a bride, but none is quite good enough for his domineering mother, Queen Aggravain. Bring the whole family to see what happens when Winnifred the Woebegone arrives from the swamps to fill the kingdom's opening for a princess ASAP. Fun Fact: the role of Winnifred the Woebegone was originated by Carol Burnett on Broadway, and has a history of stars bringing to life this loveable princess including Sarah Jessica Parker, Tracy Ulman, and Amy Poehler (at her High School!)"
