Based on the story of "The Princess and the Pea,"" it is nominated for the Tony Award for Best Musical in 1960, with music by Mary Rodgers, lyrics by Marshall Barer, and book by Jay Thompson, Dean Fuller, and Marshall Barer."In 1960 ONCE UPON A MATTRESS closed on Broadway after 244 performances, not including its off-Broadway run. Long enough for the Adorable One to brush off his robe and straighten his crown; then in the instant before he made his entrance (into a scene I had written!) he turned to me and in three short words managed to blow away every negative thing anyone has ever said about Life In The Theatre
If you thought you knew the story of 'The Princess and The Pea,' you may be in for a walloping surprise! Did you know, for instance, that Princess Winnifred actually swam the moat to reach Prince Dauntless the Drab? Or that it may not have been the pea at all that caused the princess a sleepless night? Carried on a wave of beguiling songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on the familiar classic of royal courtship and comeuppance provides for some side-splitting shenanigans. The show had a healthy run of 460 performances in an extraordinary Broadway tour, moving from the Phoenix to Broadway's Alvin (now the Neil Simon) to the Winter Garden and then to the Cort and then finally to the St
Cinderella: A Character with Culture
People all over the world like to listen to stories and there are lots of different stories, but every story has four important parts: character, setting, problem, and resolution. During the reading, when students recognize a character in the story have them put their hands by their face, when they hear something about the setting have them put their hands about their head to form a roof, etc., as a signal that they identified one of the story elements
Sofia the First: Once Upon a Princess - Disney Wiki
During the visit, James comes over to apologize for the trick he and Amber played on her and offers to make it up to her by helping her prepare for her ball which she accepts. Sofia casts the counter-spell and the ball proceeds as if nothing has happened with Sofia dancing with her father, now calling him "Dad" instead of "Your Majesty" for the first time
the only thing that sort of blew this for me was the ending though her sister was a beyotch it was sorta unfair as well because she was sort of aware that she doesnt possess the talent and i just felt bad for her getting shamed and all and the love story sort of feel forced. Over-worked, harried and terrified of being put back in foster care, 17 year old Katie (Lucy Hale) does her stepmother and step-siblings' bidding without complaining
A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song (Video 2011) - IMDb
Vocally gifted, Katie feels particularly upset when forced to lay down singing tracks so that her untalented stepsister, Bev Van Ravensway, can hopefully win a recording contract from Kensington Records - who's company President, Guy Morgan, is scouting for new spectacular talent at a talent showcase for the Performing Arts Department at a prestigious private school.

Do they already know all the songs and best lines? Yes! Do I too? Guilty! Lucy Hale is adorable, charming and talented beyond her years
In her adequate voice (assisted by Auto-Tune), Hale sings over standard-issue teen pop tracks, her lyrics full of a self-assertion that would have been beyond the more shy and retiring original Cinderella, as she declares she's going to "Run This Town" and "Make You Believe." In "Bless Myself," she reveals that she doesn't need anyone else to bless her, she can handle that alone, a degree of hubris that might seem sacrilegious if it were intended seriously
