Once Upon A One More Time - the Broadway musical featuring the songs of Britney Spears - will be closing early next month.

The production, which officially began its run on June 22, will stage its final show on September 3.

A post on the official Instagram page read: "The fairy-tale is coming to an end. Final performance September 3…come party with us one more time!"

Once Upon A One More Time follows a group of fairy tale princesses, including Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty and Rapunzel, who push back against their traditional "happily ever after" narratives.

It features tracks from Spears' back catalogue including Toxic, Work Bitch, Oops I Did It Again and Baby One More Time.

Britney Spears and Sam Asghari

The deal was reportedly one of the first that the US singer signed following the end of her controversial conservatorship in November 2021.

News of the musical’s closure comes shortly after it was announced that Spears and her husband Sam Asghari are separating.

Asghari officially filed for divorce last week, citing "irreconcilable differences", but said that he and Spears would "hold onto the love and respect" they have for each other.
