Question: Help me identify a musical!?
Hi! So, my drama teacher has revealed that our school will be putting on a musical next year, but he won't tell us what it is until he has the plans finalized!. He DOES have a pretty good idea of what he wants to do though!. He gave me some hints, and I'd love some help deciphering them!. Here they are:

A) Based off of a children's story!.
B) About sleep, or maybe dreams!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yep, Once Upon A Mattress was immediately what came to mind for me as well!. It could also be The Wizard of Oz (theoretically Dorothy's travels in Oz are all just a dream) but sounds much more likely to be OUAM!. It's a fun show!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I believe that it is probably "Once Upon a Mattress"!. It is based off of the fairytale "The Princess and the Pea", and it is about a somewhat unruly princess who must prove she a proper lady to an uptight queen by passing a test that she knows nothing about!. The test: Sleep on 20 (I think it's 20) mattress and detect the one minuscule pea beneath them!.

I'll put a link to a deeper synopsis in the sources section!.

I hope this helps!!Www@QuestionHome@Com
