Musical Synopsis:
King Midas is a powerful ruler who can think only of gold.  His lovely daughter, Princess Penelope, is having a birthday, and noble guests come from far and wide, including the handsome Prince Ajax, who loves Penelope.  Three mystical sisters present the princess with the gift of one wish, which Penelope lovingly gives to her father.  He uses his wish to receive ’The Golden Touch.’ At first, he’s ecstatic but slowly it dawns on him that even a king cannot eat gold food or drink gold water.  When he mistakenly touches Penelope, she, too, turns to gold!  How Midas learns his lesson, but is punished for his greed makes this popular tale a musical delight. This musical adaptation is rich in both lessons and laughter. - Book by: Vera Morris, Music by: Gerald Castle, Lyrics by: Michael C. Vigilant
