The Princess and the Frog (as retold by FRED MOUTON)

A FROGGY WENT A COURTIN': FRED MOUTON cleverly reverses an old fairy tale to tell a new one.

THE STORY OF THE PRINCESS & THE FROG
(As retold by FRED MOUTON)

There once was a beautiful South African Olympic swimmer, who met a French speaking Frog Prince.
After a fairy tale courtship, they agreed to get married in a dazzling Royal Wedding, for all to see.
But just before the wedding, it was revealed that the Frog Prince had not been true.
In that heartbreaking moment the Frog Prince became a toad, and the romantic spell was broken.

... but, after much convincing, the wedding went on as planned.
The Princess had decided she could live with a toad.
