Princess Ida, desperate to escape the patriarchal society she has been raised in, breaks her engagement with Hilarion, the prince her father selected for her when she was a baby, to found Castle Adamant, a women’s university. Prince Hilarion, accompanied by his friends, Cyril and Florian, sneaks into Castle Adamant, attempting to woo the princess. Calamity, hilarity, and a battle between rival kingdoms ensues – but will Princess Ida find love after all? This modern adaptation of Gilbert & Sullivan’s PRINCESS IDA boasts a beautiful score, catchy lyrics, and one of comic opera’s most interesting heroines.
