Book by Jon Hartmere
Set to the music of Britney Spears, Once Upon A One More Time turns our favorite fairytales upside down with a clever twist! All your favorite fairy tale characters are gathered for “Scroll Club” (book Club)—Snow, Cindy, Rapunzel, Prince Charming, Step Mama & more! When a fairy godmother goes rogue and plops copies of The Feminine Mystique in the laps of our classic heroines, the damsels embark on a quest to rewrite their stories and redefine “happily ever after.”
Once Upon A One More Time weaves 23 of Britney Spears’ smash singles—like “Crazy,” “Oops!…I Did It Again,” “Circus,” “Lucky,” and “Toxic”—into “a big, modern, musical dance party, with Britney’s beating heart at its core.” (ABC News)
