Top of PageFrog Kiss
Synopsis:
Some women marry princes. Some women marry frogs. In this wacky, romantic and adult spin on the classic Grimm fairytale, a kingdom in Renaissance France is in chaos-- a Princess has met a frog she is determined to turn into a Prince. Is the charming, intelligent, talking frog just a freak of Nature? Will the Princess transform him into the Prince of her dreams? Or will she find herself in bed with a frog? When a troupe of tap-dancing Taoist monks arrives, they set into motion magical events which they hope will re-balance the ying and yang of the kingdom, transform a frog into a prince and put the princess in touch with her inner frog.
