This morning on KSEE Sunrise a couple of castmembers from Children's Musical Theaterworks gave us a preview of the upcoming musical Once Upon a Mattress.

Performances begin August 22 and run through August 30.
August 22, 23, 24 & August 28, 29, 30
Thursday & Fridays - 7:30 P.M.
(Thursdays 2 for 1)
Saturdays - 2:00 P.M. & 7:30 P.M.
Sundays – 2:00 P.M.

WHERE: Fresno Memorial Auditorium Theatre, 2425 Fresno Street in downtown Fresno across from the historic Fresno Water Tower.

WHO: Directed by Jane Wagner with performers between the ages of 11-14.

HOW: If you thought you knew the story of "The Princess and the Pea", you may be in for a big surprise! For instance, did you know that it wasn't the pea at all that caused the princess a sleepless night? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, this rollicking spin on the familiar classic of royal courtship provides for some side-splitting shenanigans. Chances are you will never look at fairy tales quite the same again! (Appropriate for audiences of all ages.)

COST: Reserved seating: $10.00- $20.00
