Suspecting her husband-to-be of betrayal, a fetching young heiress disguises herself as a knight to woo the hand of the countess he desires. In this new adaptation of an 18th century romp, Theatre de la Jeune Lune brings their incomparable wit and physical exuberance to the perils of courtships in a deliciously nasty game of love, sex and power.
