Attention theater lovers: Stephen Schwartz is continuing his relationship with Princess Cruises by writing and producing a new stage show for the line.  The Secret Silk is Schwartz’s third Princess show.  The story is a classic Asian folk tale with a contemporary spin.  It is about a young woman with a secret, and the magical ability to create brilliant silk fabric.  The 50-minute show also features puppets by Jim Henson’s Creature Shop.  Magic to Do was the first show Schwartz created for Princess and is a revue of his amazing work. It includes on-stage illusions and some of his most famous songs, including Day by Day and Defying Gravity. It is being staged on Crown Princess, Emerald Princess and Ruby Princess.  His second show, Born to Dance, celebrates Broadway dance. The multimedia production traces the journey of renowned artists and shows that made musical theater history. It is being produced on Grand Princess, Star Princess and Golden Princess.  In addition to being staged on Diamond Princess, The Secret Silk will be produced on Regal Princess in early 2018.
