Go Back Once Upon a Mattress

by Marshall Barer, Jay Thompson and Dean Fuller, lyrics by Marshall Barer, composed by Mary Rodgers

Rated G, appropriate for most audiences

Prince Dauntless has one wish—to be happily married so his kingdom’s curse can be lifted and he can find his true love. Only one thing stands in his way—his mother, Queen Aggravain. When an unlikely suitor from the swamplands arrives in court to woo the prince, she throws the queen’s plans into disarray and shows that love is much more than skin-deep. Based loosely on the “Princess and the Pea” fairy tale.
