About this Item

Print on Demand. This book is a comedy that tells the story of the Grand Duchess of Regolstein, a young and giddy woman who is tired of the stuffy old men who have always been around her. She decides to declare war on a neighboring prince so that she can have some excitement in her life. The war is a success, and the Grand Duchess returns home victorious. However, she soon realizes that war is not all it's cracked up to be, and she is forced to confront her own feelings about violence and power. The book is a witty and satirical look at the absurdity of war and the dangers of unchecked ambition. It is also a story about a young woman finding her own voice and learning to stand up for what she believes in. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

About this title

Synopsis

Brisk farce of mistaken loyalties, military pride, and romantic schemes.

A lively stage comedy where quick wit, pratfalls, and scheming nobles collide in a camp filled with gossip, pomp, and playful intrigue. This edition presents a playful look at a courtly world turned upside down, where soldiers chase love as eagerly as victory. Expect rapid dialogue, case of mistaken identity, and a chorus of schemes that keep the action rolling from first scene to punchline.

Witty banter and physical comedy that spark the stage world to life
A tangled web of romance, ambition, and loyalty among generals, nobles, and courtiers
Bright-out-of-time military parody set against a lavish royal backdrop
Dynamic ensemble acting with a mix of denizens and dignitaries chasing favors and fame

Ideal for readers who enjoy classic stage farces, theatrical comedies, and brisk, character-driven humor.
