The Lovesick Court, or the Ambitious Politique

About the show

In Thessaly, Princess Eudina must choose between twin brothers Philargus and Philocles while the ambitious Stratocles plots to take the throne. The twins sacrifice their own prospects for one another, thwarting the plot; a concealed birth reveals their true identities, allowing Philocles to inherit and Eudina to marry Philargus. A comic subplot mirrors the courtship conflict.
