About the show

In the Kingdom of Delhi in 1750, Crown Prince Mignapour falls in love with Frenchwoman Irma, while his cousin Bengaline and Grand Vizier Nicobar plot to prevent their marriage. Captain Crakson joins the plot because he also wants Irma. The conspirators arrange for Mignapour’s magic pearl necklace to turn black, supposedly disqualifying him from the throne. Joquelet finds a document revealing that the necklace’s power was invented. Mignapour can become Grand Mogul and marry Irma; Bengaline is forced to marry Crakson.
