Abstract
Nicolas Vernay is an aspiring playwright, commissioned by the King to direct a cast of blue-blooded players during the Royal Wedding celebrations at Versailles. Leonor is a Spanish princess, arranged to be married to the philandering French Dauphin, Louis. Despite barriers of class and questions of honor, these two unlikely friends turn the court of Versailles upside down in fabulous French fashion in this new musical inspired by the works of Corneille, Moliere, and Perrault.
