Performances will begin April 14 at Chicago’s James M. Nederlander Theatre ahead of an April 30 opening. A Broadway premiere is expected to follow, with details to come, reports Playbill.

Synopsis:

Once Upon A Time… a group of famous fairy tale princesses gather for their fortnightly book club, to read together from – well, the only book they’ve ever known – Grimm’s Fairy Tales. When Cinderella makes a desperate wish for a new story, a rogue fairy godmother drops The Feminine Mystique in her corseted lap. Oh baby, baby… could there really be more to life than bridesmaid dresses, friendships with woodland creatures, and dreams of a prince’s kiss?

Once Upon a One More Time features popular Britney Spears hits like “Oops I Did It Again,” “Lucky,” “Circus” and “Toxic.”
