A modern twist on the Hans Christian classic, The Princess and the Pea is a puppeterrific musical lesson in detaching from technology, spending time with loved ones and learning to be confident. Offering laughs for kids and parents alike, this gem is brimming with loveable characters—from the rabbit who dreams of giving up his life as the castle cleaner to become an entertainer, to the bored prince seeking something more than just videogames, to the hilarious singing pea, these expressive, custom-built puppet friends are a brilliant work of art which truly bring Ryan’s retelling to life.
