The Green Bird
The Green Bird
by Carlo Gozzi
Adapted by Hillary DePiano
It's been almost two decades since King Tartaglia went on a quest for three magical oranges and found his Queen Ninetta. But when war breaks out with a neighboring kingdom, enemies from the past seize the throne and execute a cruel revenge on the lovers. With the King lost on the battlefield, the Queen buried alive, the royal heirs presumed dead and the  kingdom itself in ruins, it all looks pretty darn bleak for a comedy. Luckily, there's magic and mayhem aplenty in this wild fairy tale to guide everyone on the chaotic path back to happily ever after. Amid  curses, clowns, demons, a talking statue that's rapidly losing control of the story he's narrating and  yet another quest for a bit of enchanted fruit, this ain't your grandma's commedia dell'arte. In a story  where no one's really worthy of the title of hero, it's up to twins Renzo and Barbarina to unravel the  mystery of The Green Bird in time to save everyone from themselves.
