This show is very special for the Orange Tree.
We produced it in the summer of 1975. It packed the room above the pub and, in the days before advanced booking, created queues of 100s up Clarence Street and into Parkshot. We brought it back for Christmas. It transferred into the West End. We revived it in 1989.
But the time has come to produce it in the new theatre.
The King of a semi-barbaric kingdom builds a new arena. He needs big event to open with. When his search bears fruit it causes heart ache for the beautiful princess.
The music and lyrics are written by the same team who wrote Wild Wild Women.
The music is stunning. This is a Christmas show to die for.
