*The Ghent Playhouse presents Once Upon a Mattress – A musical comedy for
the entire family.*



*Once Upon a Mattress *opens on Friday, January 20 and runs through Sunday,
February 5 with performances Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sunday

What do you get when you mix one pea, 20 mattresses and a Princess-to-be
named “Fred?”  You get one hilarious musical love story, based on the
popular fairytale, “The Princess and the Pea.”  Join Queen Aggravain
(played by Cathy Lee-Visscher, Playhouse Artistic Director and on-stage
favorite) and King Sextimus the Silent (you will remember Don Dolan from
last season’s *The Weir*) as they rule a small medieval kingdom in 15th
Century Europe.  Other Playhouse regulars, Sam Reilly as Prince Dauntless
and Michael Meier as Sir Harry were last seen on stage in this season’s
Panto.  Arielle Lant who usually is behind the scenes stage managing or
assistant directing takes the stage as Lady Lucille and Joseph Sicotte
(Seymour in last season’s *Little Shop of Horrors*) assumes the role of the
Jester. Erin Harwood, Robyn Brahm, Megan Moran, Dylan Widjiono, Adrian
Alcala, Andy Johnston, Charlotte Hays, Micaela Conte, Mark Lant  & Maeve
Nielsen help round out the cast.

Rodgers; Lyrics by Marshall Louis Barer; Directed by Teri Conte; Sara Conte
