Reston Community Players’ ‘Once Upon a Mattress’ lets the good times roll
Once Upon a Mattress is a beloved musical featuring music by Mary Rodgers, lyrics by Marshall Barer, and a book by Jay Thompson, Dean Fuller, and Marshall Barer. Reston Community Players’ version is set in 1920s New Orleans with doses of Mardi Gras inserted throughout the visual elements of the production. Rather than hearing a traditional overture at the beginning, the audience is greeted by the Minstrel (Jonathan Grygiel) dressed as a cordial Southern Gentleman to tell the classic tale of the Princess and the Pea. Grygiel immediately captivates us with his smooth, Benoit Blanc-style persona and beautiful vocal performance.

Just Cats Clinic: Where Every Cat Gets to Live Beyond Nine Lives
Ask any cat owner about the worst part of a vet visit and you will hear the same story: the carrier, the car ride, and a waiting room full of barking dogs. Dr. Elizabeth Chapman decided Reston deserved better. In April 2014 she opened Just Cats Clinic at historic Lake Anne Plaza, becoming Reston’s first veterinary practice dedicated exclusively to cats. Twelve years later, it has grown into one of Northern Virginia’s most respected feline hospitals, now open 365 days a year in a newly renovated building at 11401 North Shore Drive that anchors the front of Lake Anne.
