Plot Summary

It looks like the business of Penelope, the village seamstress, is being undermined by a couple of traveling rascals who dupe her best customer, Geraldine into thinking they can sew her a finer dress in less time than Penelope. Such is their skill at deception; they even have the Queen of the land believing they can make her the finest gown she has ever worn! The jester is thrown into the dungeon; the royal treasury is overdrawn! Will the tricksters succeed or will they, and the vain Queen, be revealed by the truthful words of a child?

The Setting

A Land strangely resembling Elizabethan England, but not.
