Show Summary:
"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. " Click to view poster.

About the ORRHS Drama Club...
Financial resources for the Drama Club are provided by Friends Of Old Rochester Drama (F.O.R.D.), a non-profit organization, run by volunteers. F.O.R.D. is the sole financial resource to cover the cost of play rights, props, sets, costumes and so much more. In addition to financial support, F.O.R.D. volunteers provide their skills and time to fundraise, support production needs, and manage the non-profit organization. They are the "Producers" of our shows. You can learn more about F.O.R.D. at www.friendsofoldrochesterdrama.org or email the Board of Directors at directors@friendsofoldrochesterdrama.org
