This season we focus on character development and analysis of the female protagonists in Golden Age Musicals. This episode we find ourselves in the pages of a fairytale adaptation composed by Mary Rodgers and starring a zany cast of characters in the cult classic "Once Upon a Mattress." Join us for discussions about the development of this musical turned multiple TV adaptations and launching the career of the amazing comic Carol Brunett who has starred multiple times as the lead Winnifred and in the latest silver screen release as Queen Aggravain. Fall "in love with a gril named Fred" and see how pesky a pea can be.
