The Triumph of Love
Directed by Alistair Ganley
Cygnet Company
A witty and seductive comedy by the
eighteenth century master Pierre de Marivaux.
What is a princess to do when she is in love with the handsome prince who hates her because her father usurped his father’s throne?
The answer is simple – dress up as a boy and woo the prince, his tutor and the tutor’s sister who have all renounced love.
Enlightenment reason is challenged by those most basic of human instincts – love and desire - in this delightful and playful romp.
On tour around Devon July 8-17
