Grape

First appearance Princess Peach: Showtime! (2024)
Portrayed by Yuhko Kaida (?)

Template:Quote2 Grape, also referred to as Madame Grape by her minions,[1] is the main antagonist of Princess Peach: Showtime! She is an evil sorceress who, along with her gang of minions called the Sour Bunch, takes over Sparkle Theater while Princess Peach is in attendance. Peach teams up with the theater's guardian Stella to put a stop to Grape's madness.[2]

Grape's name, when combined with that of the Sour Bunch, plays off the phrase "sour grapes;" it also refers to her purple coloration and may also play into a fruit theme with Princess Peach's name. Additionally, the play on the phrase "sour grapes" references Ancient Greek theater's celebrations to honor Dionysis, the god of wine and theater.[3]
