Cora is a beautiful princess. Reginald is a bachelor King. Their pairing should be a match made in a fairytale, but in this story nobody is what they seem. One by one, the spoiled princess rejects each suitor brought before her. Finally, her father decrees she would marry the next man to walk through thepalace door, and the result is more than anyone bargained for! Now married to a poor commoner – Reginald in disguise – she moves to the surrounding forests where they are beset with trials and tribulations that teach them both that sometimes there is more to people than meets the eye. Through the meddling antics of an impish minstrel, a band of thieves and three blind mice, Cora and Reginald just might find happily ever after. A must see for children of all ages.
