Review: Once Upon A Matress

The room for the site was all a clutter, as usual.

Papers scattered about on the tables, throw pillows from the couches on the chandelier and other knick knacks in every which way. however there was one area that was clean in what seemed like a dorm apartment... it was in the kitchen.

The table was nicely clean, decorated with a table and two tea cups, everything behind it was in its place. Sitting there was a young girl, barely made it to the age of adult hood. Ebony tressess covered those root beer colored eyes and a sweet smlie came upon her lips as she started to drink the tea. Dominique was clad in black and red pinstripe pants, her top a black t-shirt with a white star in the middle. also was a black leather jacket, the collar slightly fluffy from the usual wear-and-tear.

Occupying the other chair was a young man, one who looked like he could be related to the female sitting next to him. His skin was the color of mocha, his hair black as night. However, his eyes werent as dark brown but of a golden color. His body was taught with muscles and could be seen for he was wearing a green shirt that was thin, the front reading 'made in ireland' with a shamrock on it. Black pants covered his bottom half , a hole in the back which let his long and fluffy fox tail be free without problems. The young man...was all man at all. He was a kitsune--a fox person.

The two looked to the audience (the readers of course) and spoke up.

"Hi," Piped up the young girl in a chipper voice. "I'm Dominique Fambro. I go by many names... so you may know me as Little Tiger, Dom, or Nique."

She grinned and nodded. Surely she had many nicknames but didnt want to go through all of them; people might see her skitzophrenic. She looked to the kistune, who was currently lapping up his tea with his tongue.

"And...this is my friend, Nikuumo. He just works here."

The golden eyed boy looked up from his tea and grinned.

"She barely pays me...and she beats me... " He said, his voice that of a teenage male but with a growly tone to it. Nique watched him for a moment then shook her head, muttering to him.

"You know thats a lie...Dont say that anymore."

Nikuumo whimpered and his fox ears flattned back against his head.

"Aw," He whined, "You never let me have any fun."

The girl shook her head and looked back to the audience.

"For the next seven posts-- "

She was immeadiatly slapped by a black paw coming fast as lightning. It was Nikuumo, catching her in her lie. She quickly changed it.

"For the next three posts---"

Slap!

"One post and one post only!!!! " Nothing happened. She smiled. "We are going to talk about the epic romantic comedy Once upon a Matress... shown at the Woodland Opera house."

"Oh boy! A story!!" Nikuumo piped up and he wiggled into a comfortable position, leaning forward on teh table, putting his elbows on it and his head resting on his paws. Nique stared at him for a moment then started.

"The story takes place in the Medevil times in a castle far far away."

"How far...?" The kitsune asked, waing his hand around like a little kid that wanted to be picked. Nique watched him then shrugged.

"I dunno....far.Very far. Farther than you can think of!!" She smirked in satisfaction as he saw the kitsune's eyes sparckle like as if he was in a fantasy. she knew that will shut him up while she talked...

"The story is about a young prince, Prince Dauntless who was ready to find a Bride. However, His pushy and overdramatic mother, The Queen would be very picky on who she wanted her son to marry...if he would be able to marry at all.

"However With the help of royal court The prince finds Winnifred, A strong and outgoing princess who lives in the swamp passed the mountains. Determined to not get her son married, the Queen makes test for Winnefred..or 'Fred' in the story, to see if she is truly a princes. What was it...? A pea.

"Yes, this play itself is a spoof of The princess and the Pea. Many good part, leave you laughing through the entire play. "

Seeing that the kitsune was awfully quiet she looked in the direction of his chair to find that he wasnt sitting on it. She shrugged and went on...its not like she needed him.

"So why did I go see it..? Cause I wanted to! Get off my back, gosh!!" She looked away from the camera..having a Napoleon Dynamite moment. she calmed down though after a moment and went on....

"I really went to go and see it because 3 of my favorite teachers were in it. Mr, Cooner, head of GSA was the director for the play. Meanwhile Mr. Little and Mr. Howard were actors in the play. Mr. Little was the jester while Mr. Howard was the Minstrel. I had to support my teachers as they have supported me. Also cause they's be cool."

She took a sip of her tea then spoke up again.. "The other actors were great of course!"

"The experience to go and see it was great. Worth going to see it again, definately. If I had the money... I would bring my family but... Not everyone in my family has a strong liking for the writing and the arts like i do."

"Amen to that!!"

Nikuumo's smart mouth could be heard off in the room...along with the blaring of the t.v. He was playing video games. Nique's eye twitched but she kept going.

"However, the ending wasnt all that good. No..the play was good from head to toe..im talking about the end of the night. .. "

She looked aorund to see if anyone else was paying attention and then she blushed in embarrasement.

"My mom...told my teachers..that they were sexy."

She shook her head madly, trying to get that moment out of her mind. She was haunted by it!! After a moment of pulling at her hair, whimpering, trying to get it out she smirked and looked back up, shifting in her chair to get a bit more comfortable...

"However, I got her back. My car has the worst steering fluid ever...so i just turned really hard and made a screeching sound. Which was fun. Also... I bumped into the curb. Not fun. "

She laughed nervously, scratching the back of her head. "Well..the first time was...but then the second time was my mom...cause she was yelling at me cause i was embrarrasing her...while there was no third time."

"Yea right!!" Nikuumo piped up again. Nique yelled out.

"Shut up!! Before I put you in the hole!!"

He whimpered and all was silent. She looked back to the audience and sighed softly in content now.

"In conclusion I give this play a precious five......out of five. It was such a big play in such a small theater. Also becuase it was a musical and I love da musicals. It takes a lot of talent! If i had a chance to I would definately see it again. And take someone with me. Its the perfect place to go on a date.... "

A snort came from the room... Nikuumo again...The dark skinned girl's eye twitched and then she got up. It was time to say goodbye.

"well this has been Dominique Fambro bidding adeiu to the faithful readers here at The Demon's Fridge. "

She goes out of the camera's veiw...far away. however... .the soft screaming of a spooked out fox demon could be heard down the hall .
