The Pauper Princess

The Princess and the Pauper is a classic story. Two identical-looking people from entirely different backgrounds switch places. Rich swaps with poor. Poor trades places with rich, add a twist of Elizabethan England and you’ve got The Pauper Princess – a retelling of Mark Twain’s The Prince and the Pauper. Before Queen Elizabeth ascended the throne, she was just Princess Elizabeth, fending off suitors. Theresa wears rags and scrounges for food. She’s so desperate she pretends to be a boy so she can be in a play. When Princess and Pauper come face-to-face, when one becomes the other, who knows what will happen? Hilarious characters, fun costumes, it’s Elizabethan England like you’ve never seen it before. It’s time to Huzzah! And Par-tay!
