The Fit Prince @ King’s Head Theatre (until Jan 2026)

Vogue Standout Act From The Fringe New York Times Critics' Pick Panic! In Swedonia. The King is dead and the prince next in line to the throne is unmarried if he doesnt find someone soon he must forfeit the crown! In New York City, baker Aaron Butcher is butchering his career as a family baker. Maybe a commission in the non-location-specific country of Swedonia will fix his problems Following the sold-out, award-winning shows Gwyneth Goes Skiing and Diana: The Untold and Untrue Story, Awkward Productions are back with a brand new show that Flicks through the Net of traditional holiday movies, bringing all their Hallmarks together in the signature awkwardprods way - queer, chaotic, comedic and heartfelt. Written by and starring Linus Karp and Joseph Martin, with original music by Leland and multiple surprise cameos, this highly anticipated show is as much a love letter to Karps native Sweden as it is a subversion of heteronormative romcoms. Grab your bags, youre going to Swedonia.
