Step into the not-so-glittery world of Princess Sparkles — a professional princess-for-hire who’s very available, a teeny bit unstable, and just that little bit too much. Appearing at five-year-old birthday parties somewhere near you, she’s flustered, running late, and it seems more than just her costume is coming apart at the seams. Want to feel like a child again? Ever worked with children? Ever wondered why people warn against it? Prepare to be hurled into a chaotically fun-filled birthday extravaganza — complete with games, “magic,” and stories gone wildly off-script. But beware: she is definitely not Elsa, and this party might not be suitable for children... or adults... or anyone, really.
As her crown slips, so does her grip on reality. Lily Maryon’s debut show is an unhinged hour of character comedy with a theatrical twist, casting the audience in the role of the children as Sparkles fights to keep the party and herself together.
