About The Fit Prince

The King of Swedonia is dead, and the unmarried prince must find love fast – or lose the crown forever. Meanwhile in New York City, struggling baker Aaron Butcher is kneading more than dough as his career crumbles. Could a royal commission in Swedonia be the recipe for romance?

From the team behind the sold-out hits Gwyneth Goes Skiing and Diana: The Untold and Untrue Story, Awkward Productions return with this queer, chaotic, and heartfelt twist on the classic holiday romcom. Expect big laughs, camp chaos, and a glittering send-up of those familiar Hallmark-style festive movies.
