Fast forward a few years, and Princess Rose is turning 21 and must marry to inherit the throne of her parents. But evil Aunt Beullah will do everything in her power to prevent that from happening. And besides, where will one find someone to marry a princess with a curse placed on her? Add a Magic mirror, some trolls and a number of possible suitors, and you have the recipe for a hilarious tale of mayhem and merriment.
