Palatsi

About the show

In a palace, courtiers worry that the King has not left his chamber for three days. He later appears but speaks only through Queen Constance. Valmonte rises in the court and invites Constance to flee with him; Kitty plans their escape during a feast. The King overhears, disguises himself as a beggar at the feast, and is ordered arrested by Ossip, who does not recognize him. Constance and Kitty escape; Valmonte emerges bearing the autocrat’s insignia.
