IN THE LAND OF THE FAERIE QUEEN

Cast: 10 m or f, 6 f, 7 m, extras. 65 minutes. Middle/High School.

This is an entertaining and humorous "knights in shining armor" musical based on Book One of Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene. The show chronicles the bold efforts of a newly-dubbed knight to save a fair maiden and her family from the terrible dragon. On the way, our hero and heroine battle the witch Duessa and the evil magician Archimago. With wit and pizzazz, this historical show presents an allegory of trying to act morally in a world of temptation.
