Venice: City of mystery, intrigue and singing gondoliers…

After a busy day cruising the canals, two humble gondoliers marry two adoring flower girls. But before they can embark on their new lives together, the Grand Inquisitor reveals that one of them is really the king of faraway Barataria and the other is, well, a gondolier.  The problem is, nobody knows which is which, so they will have to abandon their new brides and rule jointly.  Matters are further complicated when the gondoliers learn that whichever one is king was married as an infant to an impoverished Spanish princess.  She, of course, secretly loves another.  How will this romantic and political muddle be solved?  With witty dialogue, bursts of colorful dancing, and some of the most joyous music ever written.
