About Once Upon a Mattress

Many moons ago in a far-off place, Queen Aggravain decreed no couples could marry until her son, Prince Dauntless, found a bride. Princesses came from far and wide to win the hand of the prince, but none could pass the impossible tests given to them by the Queen. That is, until the “shy” swamp princess, Winnifred the Woebegone, showed up. Would she be able to pass the Sensitivity Test, marry her prince and help Lady Larkin and Sir Harry to the altar? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on the classic tale The Princess and the Pea provides some side-splitting shenanigans. For after all, a princess is a delicate thing.

Florence Township Memorial High School Performing Arts Center

FTMHS Performing Arts Center, or #flashPAC as we call it affectionately, is the intersection of our school's theater, dance, and music departments. As of now, we put on one full musical each spring, but have hopes to expand to doing a straight play in the fall, among other recitals and presentations. This is only the beginning - stay tuned!
