2. TRIUMPH OF LOVE

Love can make a woman do strange things:

• lying about her past
  
• giving up her career for the man she loves
  
• throwing off her princessly raiment and disguising herself as a young man in order to infiltrate the guarded ?men-only? palace compound of an exiled prince she?s admired from afar (who is secretly plotting to murder her and usurp her throne).

Such is the state of things in this hilarious, tongue-in-cheek, anachronistic adaptation of the classic Marivaux comedy Triumph Of Love.

TRIUMPH OF LOVE finds a parallel for the conventions of 18th century French comedy in the witty repartee, sexy comedy, inspired buffoonery and tender poignancy of this charming small-cast chamber musical. As well as making it extremely flexible in its performance space, set and costume demands, with its emphasis on character and situation rather than production values, TRIUMPH OF LOVE is an excellent showcase for comic actors.
