cute, but needs more work
More development of the characters needed
Less musical breaks
Dialog and Song Lyrics need some rework
- will tick off parents everywhere with the farm mom telling the farm boy that his dad can't stop him if he doesn't know... BAD message for a kids movie, take it out - rethink and reword the message there
- first scene with the gardner and the fairy is just irritating
Story worth pursuing - so rework until you get it right. As it is now, the kids would watch [once] while they ate breakfast...not a box office hit.

Love the story and the music
The music is amazing. The scene at about 28 minutes has me belly laughing.

It works well.
In this genre, this would certainly work on several fronts, although in my opinion it would work much better in animation than in live action (fairies nearly always do).
Even with or without the heavy musical influence it would still work.
If I were to suggest anything at all maybe it would be to polish up the formatting.
But hey it's a thumbs up.

I truly believe this children's screenplay was written by a child who has yet to grow up and learn how to write and edit (Homophones). I had to work hard to imagine the scenes.
First of all, the narrator told about the fantastic scenery and the castle, but didn't describe it. The same with the character - the king was sad. Well I'm sad, after reading this - should I describe my facial features, as it would help. And, what are 'fortunes'? Are they the slips of paper inside the fortune cookies? The king's pathetic attempt at humour was pathetic. I haven't read Grimm's 'The 12 Dancing Princesses'. Is this a copy of the book?
Sorry, this cript - sorry, script left me cold, as the author left a glaring homophone after editing.

A few of the songs start to sound the same after a while, especially the ballads, but you make up for it with some very kick-butt, large-scale production numbers. And I could see where this would be an art director's dream: lots of great opportunities for expansive, emotionally-driven design.
