Adapted from the fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm, The Frog Prince combines song, dance and comedy with the story of a young prince who has been turned into a frog by an evil witch.  Add to the cast of characters a young princess whom no one can understand because she, too, lives under a witch's spell, three singing frogs, a pet snake who has a taste for frogs, a solemn king and a silly court jester.  Songs range from the haunting ballad, "How I Became A Frog," to the rousing finale, "Happy Ending."  With a basic set and colorful costumes, The Frog Prince is enjoyable for everyone.
