A Princess Story

Music by

Elspeth Collard

Book and Lyrics by

Sam Rosenblatt

Synopsis

A Princess Story defies and denies the “damsel in distress” trope, choosing instead to put the princess front and center as the main heroine of the tale. Following Princess Annalise in a quest to slay a dragon, our story features an LGBTQ+ love story, a dynamic pair of strong leading female characters, and a boy band of knights.
