| If you thought you knew the story of "The Princess and the Pea," you may be in for a surprise. Did you know that Princess Winnefred ("Fred") swam the moat to reach Prince Dauntless he Drab?

This rollicking spin on the familiar classic of royal courtship and comeuppance provides for some side-splitting shenanigans. Songs include: "Many Moons Ago", "Opening for a Princess", "Sensitivity", ''''The Swamps of Home", "The Minstrel, the Jester, and I", ""Happily Ever After" and others. |

| Rodgers and Hammerstein’s only musical written directly for the screen is not a stage musical that has critics raving from coast to coast. Set against the colorful background of an American heartland tradition, State Fair travels with the Frake family as they leave behind the routine of the farm for three days of adventure at the annual Iowa State Fair. Mom and Pop have their hearts set on blue ribbons while the daughter and son find romance and heartbreak on the midway. |
