Reno, NV. THE STORY: In this original comedy with a spice of regency parody we visit the village of Brukalton on the day of the society ball following the gender bent and sometimes lonely, yet always clever siblings of the one time noble and influential Brukalton family under the reign of the bombastic King Chuck as they navigate their strange existence where the loneliest girl in town only wants one thing, to be remembered for her artistry instead of being being part of Brukalton society.
With a wink toward romance, comedy and ridiculous and fanciful social norms, it is set during the early 19th century in an alternative world existing in an alternative era of Regency in which no one knows what will happen next, excepting for the love in the afternoon and the big ball that will prove to the village once and for all that big balls don’t matter. Recommended for ages 14 and up because of thematic things that could be weird to explain in the car on the way home. Created by Bruka’s Producing Artistic Director Mary Bennett.
