  • I Know It's Today, performed in Seattle on September 21, 2008 (Seattle's closing night performance). The three Fiona's are Sutton Foster, Marissa O'Donnell, and Keaton Whittaker. Keaton was the only one of the three not brought over for the Broadway production. It's a real shame too, as she has the strongest voice of all young Fiona's.

      I don't think 10-year-old Fiona is sexually frustrated. At least not more than most 10-year-olds, who aren't having sex anyway, captive or not.

      @MarkAGreen 9 лет назад +99

      +Sandra Grabman I was actually at that performance. The applause was for the effect of Teen Fiona exiting while holding her note and Adult Fiona entering holding the same note and the vocals were so well matched that you couldn't tell when they switched. It really made the perfect illusion that years of time had just passed during those few seconds. But indeed, all three of the actors deserved the applause. They were amazingly talented.

    Well, this is awkward. I did the math, and technically "Teen" Fiona is only NINE years old, as the script mentions that Young Fiona was sent to the tower at age 7. 958 days is not nearly as long a time as it sounds. I've loved this song forever, but I'm just now realizing I wish they had thought through the lyrics more carefully. Then again, 3,058 days, which would have been a more accurate number for Teen Fiona, (setting her at fifteen rather than nine), would have made Adult Fiona's line "8,423" less funny. Oh well. It's still a great song.

    There's a princess
    Any princess

    Not exactly, I'm still waiting
    they're living happily
    Ever after better get here
    I want love in seconds flat
    No one needs these middle bits
    Oops, did I do that'
    Cut the villains, cut the vamping
    Cut this fairytale
    Cut the peril and the pitfalls
    Cut the puppet and the whale
    Cut the monsters, cut the curses
    Keep the intro, cut the verses
    And the waiting, the waiting, the waiting, the waiting
    The waiting!
    But I know, he'll appear
    Though I seem a bit bipolar
    And I'm a vandal now as well, though he won't mind
    I'm a find, I'm a catch
    And a very gifted bowler!
    It won't be long now, I guarantee!

    YOUNG FIONA,
    (Spoken)
    Settle in girls. It's story time!
    (Sung)
    There's a princess
    In a tower
    Oh my gosh, that's just like me
    Poor Rapunzel
    Needs a haircut
    But the witch won't set her free
    She passes time by singing
    Like someone else I know
    As years go by she sits and waits?
    As years go by' Uh oh
    A torturous existence
    I don't remember this part!
    She wishes she were dead
    Skip ahead skip ahead!
    But in the end Rapunzel finds a millionaire
    The prince is good at climbing and braiding golden hair!
    So I know, he'll appear
    Cause there are rules and there are strictures
    I believe the storybooks I read by candlelight
    My white knight, and his steed
    Will look just like these pictures!
    It won't be long now, I guarantee!
    Day number 23.
    I know its today
    I know its today
    TEENSAGE FIONA:
    (Spoken)
    Oh here's a good one! It's a classic!
    (Sung)
    There's a princess
    In a coma
    Glad its her instead of me.
    Pretty maiden
    In a glass box
    How I wonder does she pee?
    Blah blah blah, poison apple
    Boring boring evil queen
    Filler filler, been there, read that!
    Seven shorties on the scene.
    Skip ahead, skip ahead'
    But in the end the princess wakes up with a start
    The prince is good at kissing
    And melting Snow White's heart!
    So I know, he'll appear
    And his armor will be blinding!
    As shining as his perfect teeth and manly hose
    He'll propose
    On one knee
    And our prenupt will be binding!
    About time we set the wedding date!
    Day number 958.
    I know it's today.
    He'll show up today....
    FIONA:
    ...ay...
