Triumph of Love - The Musical Comedy
With a book by James Magruder, Music by Jeffrey Stock, and Lyrics by Birkenhead, and directed by Chach Snook, the story of this musical revolves around Spartan princess LĂ©onide, whose love for Agis has been fired up by a single glimpse. To complicate matters, her throne was wrongfully gained by her family from, you guessed it, the object of her affection. Agis has been raised to be a man ruled by books and reason rather than passion by his passionless book-wise uncle Hermocrates and his aunt, the equally scholarly and sexless Hesione. Typical of such comedies, the princess, aided by her wily servant and conspirator Corine resorts to gender disguise to woo the prince out of his sheltered existence To further add to the plot's convolutions, we have Corine's counterparts in the prince's domain, a gardener and Harlequin to provide pratfalls and puns--the latter, in keeping with the set, heavy on gardening images.
