Poisoned apples. Glass slippers. Who needs ’em?!

Not Snow White and her posse of disenchanted princesses in the hilarious hit musical that’s anything but Grimm. Forget the princesses you think you know – the original storybook heroines have come to life to set the record straight.

Trigger Warnings:

  • Mature humor

  • Mild adult themes

  • Light theatrical haze may be used

CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS

SNOW WHITE

Brassy and self-assured. The leader of the princess pack who likes to be in control. Also has a loving, maternal instinct. Aspires to be perfect, but she soon realizes that being perfectly ‘you’ is more important.

CINDERELLA

Perky, quirky, and impish. She’s always enthusiastic, especially when it comes to being a real-life princess, but is about to discover that there’s more to being a princess than pretty gowns and shiny glass slippers.

SLEEPING BEAUTY

The perfect comic foil to Snow White. Always the flippant and unpredictable cut-up. She loves to dance (sometimes uncontrollably) and is a fantastic physical comedienne. She enjoys being perfectly and uniquely herself.

HUA MULAN

A legendary Chinese folk hero from the poem The Ballad of Mulan. She has a good-natured sense of humor while maintaining a respect for her culture. She is excited to come out onstage and, through her heartfelt story, reveal her true self.

THE PRINCESS (WHO KISSED THE FROG)

Having been left out of the kingdom for decades, this Black princess is here to claim her throne and celebrate inclusivity and diversity in fairy tales. Confident; clever with a turn of phrase; loves a funny pop culture reference. Wonderfully witty; joyous.

THE LITTLE MERMAID

Once innocent and obedient, she’s now rowdy and rebellious. Having regretfully given up her seemingly idyllic life under the sea, she copes with her new reality through inappropriate yet hilarious comedy. She is the life of the party!

POCAHONTAS

Plucky, valiant. She has been homogenized by an entertainment industry willing to distort her true Native-American story just to sell cinema tickets. As she comically mocks her glammed up portrayal in Hollywood cartoons, she is on a journey to restore her authentic, historical self.

BELLE

A smart and witty bookworm from classic French lit who inexplicably speaks and sings with an American accent. She chats with inanimate objects, cleans up after her beast of a husband and it’s slowly driving her insane.

PRINCESS BADROULBADOUR

Originally from the South-Asian-turned-Middle-Eastern Aladdin sagas, this sultan’s daughter has had enough of being secondary in her own tale. Misogyny begone! It’s a whole new world and this independent and puckish princess is taking her story back!

RAPUNZEL

American capitalism won’t turn this campy, Mel Brooksian songstress into a damsel in distress. Nein! Brunehildesque, strong, and fun-loving, she’s bent on getting her fair share from those who make bank off fairy tale princesses.

We are always looking for new faces we can have onstage at the Acrosstown.

The next new face can be YOU!
