ABOUT THE SHOW:
It’s the Roaring 20’s! Victorian and Edwardian strictures are forced to give way to youthful rebellion. Young lovers run away, lured by this glitz and glam-filled underworld, seeking the freedom they don’t have at court. They are pursued by two of their peers, one trying to stop the pair and one following in hopes that she will win back her lost love. Meanwhile, a rag-tag group of blue-collar workers attempt to prepare a classic play for the Duke’s wedding. All find themselves caught in the magical crossfire of a marital spat gone awry.
