The drama collaboration between Southland, LeRoy-Ostrander and Sacred Heart School in Adams will be presenting the play “Once Upon A Mattress.”
The play, which involves students from grades 1 through 12 across the three schools, tells the story of Queen Aggravain, who decrees no couples could marry until her son, Prince Dauntless, found a bride.
Princesses come from far and wide to win the hand of the prince, but none can pass the impossible tests given to them by the queen, until the shy swamp princess, Winnifred the Woebegone, arrives.
Will she be able to pass the Sensitivity Test, marry her prince and help Lady Larkin and Sir Harry to the altar?
The play is a spin on the classic tale, “The Princess and the Pea” and includes wonderful songs with plenty of laughs and romance.
The play will be performed at 6 p.m. on Oct. 7 and 14, and 2 p.m. on Oct. 8 and 15 at Southland High School. The cost is $9 for adults and $7 for students and seniors.
