Smartest
Woman in the Kingdom
Take a basic fairy tale, turn it inside out and
what do you have? The Smartest Woman in the Kingdom! The not-too-bright
Prince Eldric has to marry the smartest woman in the kingdom by
midnight tomorrow, or the throne reverts to his evil cousin Duncan!
Unfortunately, he can't marry the woman he loves, the royal magician
Merlene, because it's decreed that he also has to marry a commoner.
Now Prince Eldric only has until sundown tomorrow to find a wife
and save the kingdom. Duncan is plotting with Carolina the Cruel
to make sure any wedding plans are foiled, so they use the Dragon's
Cloak of Invisibility to kidnap the prince. Can Genevieve, a strong-willed
swordswoman, rescue the kidnapped prince and
save the kingdom from certain doom? If she does, will she be forced
to marry him? With swordfights, invisibility, magic potions, secret
passages, bad puns and more than one surprise romance, this light-hearted
comedy turns the traditional fairy tale on its ear. It's easy
to stage and tons of fun!
