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.
A Princess Story received a fully-staged production at Marymount Manhattan College in winter 2023. It was directed by Jenna Springer with choreography by Katie James and featured 14 student performers. The production had six performances, all of which were sold out.
