Students from the Lancaster Bible College (LBC) Music, Worship and Performing Arts Department will present their winter musical, "Once Upon a Mattress," beginning Friday, Jan. 31. Performances will take place at 7 p.m. on Fridays, Jan. 31 and Feb. 7, and at 2 and 7 p.m. on Saturdays, Feb. 1 and 8, in Good Shepherd Chapel on LBC's campus at 901 Eden Road.

An adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's 1835 fairy tale "The Princess and the Pea," the musical has endured on stages of all kinds for 65 years. The comedy first opened off-Broadway in 1959 and moved to Broadway the following year, starring Carol Burnett as Princess Winnifred, played at LBC by Faith Willis. "Once Upon a Mattress" spins a tale of a kingdom where finding a true princess proves to be more challenging than expected.
