About: An original musical adaptation of the beloved Brother’s Grimm Fairy-tale. A vain, handsome prince is turned into a frog by an enchantress for his bad behaviour.

What the Press Said:

​

“Marcel Meyer’s songs and the script by Abrahamse & Meyer aren’t dumbed down for the children…colourful costumes and sets and solid acting and singing from an experienced cast all contribute to the show’s success…The Frog Prince will whisk the kiddies to fairy-tale land and vanquish their winter blues” THE CAPE ARGUS
