What Is Once Upon a One More Time JR. About?

In a world where fairy-tale characters repeat their stories again and again, Cinderella begins to wonder whether the ending she's been promised is really the ending she wants.

Her fellow princesses have spent their lives following the expectations of the Narrator, who oversees the fairy-tale world. But everything begins to change when the Original Fairy Godmother introduces a new way of thinking through a book called The Feminine Mystique.

Suddenly, Cinderella and her friends start questioning the rules. Must every princess wait for a prince? Who decides what makes a happy ending? And what happens when the characters refuse to follow the script?

With pop music, comedy, romance, and an empowering message about finding your own voice, Once Upon a One More Time JR. reimagines the traditional princess story for a new generation.
