Fairytale Fun With Once Upon a Mattress Broadway Tickets
Fairytales get a hilarious twist this year as iconic comedy musical Once Upon a Mattress returns to Broadway for the first time in almost 30 years. Following its record-breaking run Off-Broadway, two-time Tony Award winner Sutton Foster reprises her “perfectly goofy” (The New York Times) performance as Princess Winnifred the Woebegone at the Hudson Theatre in this raucous spin on a classic story.About Once Upon a Mattress
Long ago in a far-away kingdom, Queen Aggravain declares that no one can marry until her son, Prince Dauntless, finds a bride. Faced with seemingly impossible tasks, each suitor is turned away… until Princess Winnifred the Woebegone turns up! Can she charm, dance and delight her way to the altar?Once Upon a Mattress is a rollicking musical adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Princess and the Pea, brimming with joyful songs (“Shy”, “In a Little While”), side-splitting humor and an unforgettable rise to the top (of a pile of mattresses).

Sutton Foster and Michael Urie are outstanding! A wonderful show and very funny. Would recommend this
Performance date: 28 September 2024
The show is done in a lot of community theaters for a reason -- it's very accessible as far as songs and story. Sutton Foster (in my opinion) was trying too hard to be Carol Burnett that she overacted every scene. I think she is extremely talented, Read more
