While you may have heard the story of the classic fairy tale The Frog Prince, and even seen various TV and Film adaptations, we’re pretty certain you’ve not seen this unique re-telling. Beyond the Marquee reader Becky Brown shared with us a version she found on YouTube as told by the flighty, but fabulous, Forgetful Fairy. In The Forgetful Fairy and the Yucky Frog Prince, former “MAD TV” actress and voice of PBS’s “WordGirl, Dannah Phirman is the Forgetful Fairy and helping her along the way to tell the story are TV personalities Ellie Kemper (Erin from NBC’s “the Office”), Rob Corddry (Dr.Blake Downs of Adult Swim’s “Children’s Hospital”) and Mike Phirman (Himself on BBC America’s “The Nerdist”). Always a treat to see some of your favorite actors in smaller productions or personal projects that slip thru the mainstream cracks and become those rare-find sort of gems you haphazardly stumble upon. This version of The Frog Prince certainly is quirky, fun and why there aren’t more of these Forgetful Fairy videos we don’t know, but we want them!!! This definitely harkens back to the silliness and tongue in cheek humor that “Fractured Fairytales” on the “Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle” used to deliver. We hope to see more of these Forgetful Fairy’s tales soon and will update you if we are made aware of any new postings. Note: We also suggest you check out Dannah Phirman in the hilarious “Game of Thrones” parody; Game of Clones, a MUST SEE!
