Life Is a Dream

About the show

King Basilio imprisons his son Segismundo after a prophecy predicts the prince will ruin Poland and kill his father. Briefly freed, Segismundo acts violently and is returned to prison, where Basilio tells him his time at court was a dream. When rebels free him, Segismundo chooses mercy and restraint, reclaiming his throne while Rosaura seeks justice for her honor.
