WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Candide had it easy. In this skewed epic adventure, a man comes to believe he's the lost prince of a mythical land and travels The World Over to reclaim his birthright. Though tested by an obscene number of life-threatening obstacles, he sets his eye unwaveringly on the horizon. But is it at the expense of seeing what's right in front of him? Michael Mayer directs this world premiere by Keith Bunin.
Running Time: 2 hours and 30 minutes
15 minute intermission
