Once Upon A Mattress at Broadway Rose Theater Company

In a kingdom where no one can marry until the prince does, a parade of eligible princesses has failed to impress the overbearing Queen Aggravain. Enter the delightful Princess Winnifred the Woebegone—unconventional, outspoken, and nothing like what the court expected. But beneath her bold exterior is someone simply searching for a place to belong. As the castle’s quirky inhabitants scheme, sing, and fall in love, Once Upon a Mattress becomes more than a fairy tale. This musical comedy reminds us that being true to yourself is the first step toward finding where you truly fit.
