C-NS HS to present ‘Once Upon a Mattress’

NORTH SYRACUSE CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT – Cicero-North Syracuse High School will present a hysterical musical adaptation of the 1835 Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, “The Princess and the Pea,” with music by Mary Rodgers, lyrics by Marshall Barer and book by Jay Thompson, Dean Fuller and Marshall Barer. Showtimes will be 7 p.m. on March 21 and 2 and 7 p.m. on March 22.
All performances will be at the North Star Theater at the North Syracuse Junior High School.
Danielle Rausa is director, John Nadler is technical director and Karen Seamans is choreography and pit director.
In the musical, the kingdom is an unhappy one. King Sextimus has been cursed by a witch to not speak again until “the mouse devours the hawk!” Queen Agravaine has assumed power and has decreed that no one in the kingdom may wed until Prince Dauntless is married to a true princess of royal blood.
Can Princess Winnifred steal the prince’s heart and pass the royal test?  Will King Sextimus ever speak again? Will Sir Harry see Lady Larken banished forever?  Come join the fun and find out!
