Composed in 1877 whilst Chabrier was working at the French equivalent of the Home Office, this surreal comedy opens with King Ouf I walking his capital city in disguise looking for someone to execute a birthday treat.  At the same time Ambassador Hedgehog of Porcupine is in town accompanied by Laoula,  the daughter of a neighbouring monarch.  Things become complicated however when Laoula, comes across a poor pedlar, Lazuli and the pair fall in love. As the French say, à suivre  (to be continued)!

Directed by BAFTA award-winning P J Harris and conducted by French conductor Philippe Forget this production marks a Scottish premiere of supreme Gallic mischief.
