As a child, Casilda is married to Barataria’s future king, yet when she returns as an adult, her husband is nowhere to be found. The heir has been living in hiding with his true parentage forgotten. Marco and Giuseppe are two gondoliers eager to choose their respective brides. Their plans are disrupted when they learn one of them is already married. Years ago, the heir of Barataria was secretly wed to an infant girl called Casilda. Now a woman, Casilda has been named queen but is without her king. Unfortunately, the true heir was taken from his royal home and raised in secret. Both gondoliers fit the description, but only one can ascend to the throne. The Gondoliers, also known as The King of Barataria, is one of Gilbert and Sullivan’s most successful collaborations. It’s a humorous story with fairy tale elements and topical themes such as identity, honor and duty. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Gondoliers is both modern and readable.

       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights.

Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

  • Fit For A Queen
    Betty Shamieh
       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
