If you thought you knew the story of “The Princess and The Pea” you may be in for some surprises. Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on the classic tale provides some side-splitting laughs. You’ll never look at fairy tales quite the same way again.

Several are local to Port Washington including actors Eden Franco, Shawn Masia, Heather Clark, Jeff Grossman, Dave Franklin, Joel Ronis, Spencer Cohen, Caryn Ronis, Brett Grossman, and Gina Farasciano.
