ACTUP Announces Cast of ONCE UPON A MATTRESS

Acting Up is proud to announce our cast for ONCE UPON A MATTRESS

Before Anna was Frozen, Rapunzel got tangled, before Belle tamed the beast, there was….Princess Winnifred! Watch as Princess Winnifred swims the moat to reach Prince Dauntless the Drab! Will the Evil Queen keep these two lovebirds apart? Will a small pea hidden below twenty mattresses cause the Princess a sleepless night? Acting Up’s production of this Broadway favorite – which launched the career of a young Carol Burnett – will provide a fresh, contemporary spin on this popular tale. Perfect for the entire family…and you’ll never look at fairy tales quite the same way again.
