In a comical retelling of âThe Princess and the Pea,â a far-away kingdom struggles against a marriage ban by the overbearing Queen Aggravain. Everyone is forbidden to marry until her grown-ish son, Prince Dauntless, marries a suitable princess. She also happens to reject every eligible princess through a series of elaborate royalty tests, leaving the kingdomâs residents romantically frustrated. Lady Larken soon convinces her knight and beau, Sir Harry, to venture out in search of a royal bachelorette for Dauntless so the couple can wed. Sir Harry returns with Princess Winnifred the Woebegone, a noblewoman of the swamp whose freewheeling displays of strength clash with the Queenâs image of feminine propriety. Winnifred instantly catches the attention of Prince Dauntless. Meanwhile, the Queen devises another elaborate royalty test â the one with 20 downy mattresses and one lousy pea â to stop Winnifred and DauntLess from being together. The townspeople dare to uncover the test before yet another match is doomed, and Winnifred is able to pass the Queenâs supposedly impassable sensitivity test. Mary Rodgerâs classic Once Upon a Mattress is a hilarious musical that is sure to delight the entire family!

Shredding is a short surf film program that challenges outdated stereotypes about who belongs in surf culture. Instead of centering caricatures like Spicoli or Bodhi, these films highlight surfers from Morocco to the California coastâpeople whose presence on the water redefines what it means to âshred.â
Through stories of access, identity, and resilience, Shredding celebrates a new wave of surfers expanding the sportâs image and welcoming others to do the same. What remains after dismantling the old archetype is something deeper: the shared joy, freedom, and connection that surfing brings to all who answer the oceanâs call.
With films by Rabbi Chel Mandell, Lo Frentz, Serra Soyupak, Peter Williams, Nesrine Majzoub, Zachary Zezima, Yusuf Demirörs, and Arne JinAn Wong. Filmmakers will be in attendance!
