The Britney Musical we All need
A world premiere! Hit Me Baby One More Time because a brand new musical which features the iconic hits of Britney Spears is heading to Washington for its world premiere. Written by Jon Hartmere, Once Upon A One More Time will be directed by Tony Award nominee Kristin Hanggi and choreographed by MTV Video Music Award nominees Keone and Mari Madrid. The new musical will enjoy a run at Washington's Shakespeare Theatre Company before heading to Broadway.
As the fairytale princesses gather for their regular book club they are amazed when a rogue fairy godmother drops The Feminine Mystique into their corseted laps. Accompanied by songs like "Baby One More Time", "Toxic" and "Gimme More" the princesses realize that there is more to life than true love's first kiss and pretty ball gowns.
Looking at the challenges, choices and charms of 'Happily Ever After' Once Upon A One More Time is a tongue-in-cheek and jubilant exploration of the search for happiness. Perfect for audience wanting to break free and after the 'Toxic' year that was 2020!
