Description

In the year of grace 1158, King Gauthier II of Bougredec mourns the absence of a wife and a dauphin while the English besiege his dilapidated castle.<p> His advisor Facile, his valiant knight Gonzagues, and his sister Beth compete in clumsiness as they try to save the kingdom. The magical arrival of Caroline, a contemporary stylist catapulted from the 21st century, throws this joyful medieval chaos into disarray.<br><br> But who is she really? Suzanne, the missing chambermaid? A chosen one of the Gods? A threat to the established order!<br><br> Driven by sharp, whimsical language, a gallery of colorful characters, and delightfully absurd shifts in tone, The Kingdom of Bougredec is an anachronistic comedy that is as fast-paced as it is zany. It plays with the conventions of classical theatre, vaudeville, and historical parody to better explore the desire for love, recognition... and power.</p>
