Once Upon a One More Time reimagines fairy tale characters like Cinderella, Snow White and the Little Mermaid with a feminist twist. The musical features dozens of Spears’ songs, including “Oops! I Did It Again,” “Lucky,” “Circus” and “Toxic.”

The production is choreographed and directed by Keone and Mari Madrid, with an original story by Jon Hartmere.

David Leveaux serves as creative consultant, with scenic design by Anna Fleischle, costume and hair design by Loren Elstein, lighting design by Kenneth Posner, sound design by Andrew Keister and projection design by Sven Ortel.

Casting has yet to be announced.

Once Upon a One More Time had its world premiere at Shakespeare Theatre Company in Washington, D.C., in 2021.

Spears is not involved in the musical.
