About the Musical

A Piece of Our Hearts

A New Fairytale Musical

In the Kingdom of Staunton, everyone dreams of a fairytale life — except Princess Arabella. Yet as her twenty-first birthday approaches, this gamer girl must look to the future to find a husband and assume her role as Queen. But as she steps out of her comfort zone and into the real world, she can feel the atmosphere shift. Will Princess Arabella weather the storm as her fate intertwines with those rejected by a nearby kingdom? Featuring LGBTQ+ characters and the power of love, the musical "A Piece of Our Hearts" asks, “Who lets you feel alive?"
