UP NEXT: ANNABELLA IN JULY

Vanessa and Brian are on vacation, but have lost their way in the mountains. They are relieved to find a ski lodge where they can grab a bite and ask directions. However, to their utter bewilderment, everyone there (including an amorous Frenchman) rapturously welcomes Vanessa. Only they insist that she is Annabella.

Why does everyone mistake dowdy librarian Vanessa for the glamorous, dazzling Anabella? They are so certain! And, after the initial confusion, Vanessa is kind of… enjoying it. Husband Brian, however, is not. Before she quite knows what is happening, Vanessa embraces her newfound magical power in this delightful, fantastical romantic comedy from the playwright of Ben Butler.
