In August 2025, TADA Theatre will present the contemporary musical Once Upon a Mattress, directed by William Shomos. This lively retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's The Princess and the Pea follows a spirited young woman as she navigates the challenges of a repressive kingdom, bringing humor and charm with memorable songs like "Shy" and "In a Little While." The production promises to be an engaging experience, celebrating themes of individuality and friendship through its catchy melodies and fun-filled narrative.
