Prince Peter is in love with a girl. And she with him! They plan to marry and someday rule the kingdom as king and queen. Sounds lovely! There’s just one tiny, pesky, little test standing in the way. The kingdom’s by-laws say that a true princess must be able to feel a small pea placed underneath the weight of twenty mattresses. Say what? Recommended for ages 4 and up.

Presented by Human Race Theatre Company

Dayton

Directed by Margarett Perry

Cast: Sherman Fracher as Silda Grauman, Jennifer Joplin as Brooke Wyeth, Scott Stoney as Lyman Wyeth, Aaron Vega as Trip Wyeth & Kate Young as Polly Wyeth

The Wyeth family’s Palm Springs Christmas reunion is already a tense affair between conservative parents Lyman and Polly, former GOP celebrities, their two grown children and Polly’s liberal alcoholic sister, Silda. Any sense of peace vanishes completely when daughter Brooke, a once-promising novelist, announces she is about to publish a tell-all memoir that threatens to tarnish her prominent family’s past and reopen old wounds. As Brooke confesses her true motivations behind the book, she learns the real history is more shocking than she ever knew.
