PLOT SUMMARY:
The Scarlet Pimpernel, filled with daring rescues and flashy swordfights, is set against the backdrop of the French revolution and the 'reign of terror,' 1794. Sir Percy Blakeney deliberately plays the fop, along with his league of gentlemen, so as to hide their true activity of saving would-be victims of the guillotine. However, Chauvelin, the French government's most formidable devotee, is out to stop all who try to save the victims of the guillotine - especially the mysterious hero, the Scarlet Pimpernel. Performances will feature a live orchestra. Visit www.conejoplayers.org for more details.
