“The Princess and The Pea”


Presented by Missoula Children’s Theatre’s

CAVE CREEK – A Prince looks for a proper Princess to share his throne in a kingdom of snow where the residents are Winter Wind Workers, Blizzard Bringers, Icicle Sharpeners and Snow Smoothers, ruled by the Storm King and the Snow Queen. In another kingdom, a Princess and her friend the Pea live among green rolling hills and running rivers with The Flower Gardeners, River Runners, Green Shoot Growers and Tree Barkers.

peaThe two kingdoms think they have nothing in common, but the pesky Jack Frost that freezes anything and everything and the peace-loving Leprechauns prove otherwise. Throw in some Phony Princesses and there are enough twists and turns for a rollercoaster! This isn’t your garden variety “The Princess and The Pea.”
