[edit] Merging

[edit] Plot synopsis: It wasn't the pea at all!

In the script, the claim is made (in the Finale song) that it wasn't the pea at all that made it so she couldn't sleep, and nowhere in the notes does it suggest that the pea still prevents her from sleeping (though that's how the fairy tale ends). Perhaps the reference to "Dauntless removes the pea" should be removed or modified with a qualifier that something like the pea being removed separately is added by some theater companies.

• • The script also states that Fred should shift restlessly until the pea is removed. Then she snores loudly. --ERNesbitt 18:00, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Potion and the Wizard's relationship with the King

There is no song in the musical called The Potion. Also, there's no mention in the script of the Wizard "falling for the King's charm and wit."
