The Rainbow Prince

The Rainbow Prince is a contemporary live action fairy tale, with a twist on The Sleeping Beauty story. Rainbow, who changes colors with his feelings, is left on the castle steps of a King and Queen. Now a Prince, he is put to sleep by an evil Wizard and his dangerous cohort scheming to take over the kingdom. Rainbow is temporarily awakened for 21 years by the Mother of the Forest, a wise, powerful healing woman. The sole remedy to reverse the spell forever is a kiss from True Love. This happens to be from a beautiful Brown Princess. Marea must save the Prince and his entire kingdom. The Rainbow Prince is a 30-minute live action film for a K-6 audience that flips the traditional fairy tale narrative to expose children to new models of power and heroism.
