| Summary |
"Sergei Prokofiev's The love of three oranges is a delightful, farcical reworking of the traditional commedia dell'arte ... alive with tumblers, jugglers, strong men, outrageous inflatable figures, and colossal puppets. In this magical land, you'll encounter a vast array of outlandish characters. Most importantly, you'll come to know the Prince: the apparently incurable hypochondriac son of the King of Clubs who must be made to laugh lest he perish. Rejoice in his antics on his quest for the love of three magical oranges."--Container. |
