"The Princess and the Pauper"
The Emporium Center for Arts & Culture
May 17th, 2008
TWO SHOWS on 5/17, at 1 PM and 4 PM! Children's Theatre of Knoxville presents this play which updates Mark Twain's "The Prince & The Pauper" to 1834, on the day before 16-year-old Princess Victoria of Kent is to be crowned Queen. When the Princess switches clothes with a lookalike poor country girl, the King accidentally locks the wrong girl outside the Palace gates! Even with the help of the poor girl's father and a clever boy detective, will the Crown of England be placed upon the wrong's girl's head? Acted by 5 children ages 11-15, and aided by three adults, this charming drama teaches history just as it sparkles with the humor of Mark Twain.
