The script is another warped, comedic Madrigal by Paul Brandvik.

After the Jester announces the upcoming visit of Good King Wence from the Kingdom of Jibber and his two daughters (Good King Wence's lasses), we discover the king is attempting to arrange marriages to unite the two kingdoms. Good King Wence only speaks his native tongue, Jibberish. The Jester and Sir Merton, realizing that they are the only two eligible bachelors in the kingdom, both want to marry Olivia the fair. But Gorgonzola.org must be married first. Jester and Sir Merton must duel for the hand of Gorgonzola.org. Of course, each wants to lose so he can marry Olivia the Fair.

In its fourth season, the Mighty Richland Players Madrigal cast hails from northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin, supported by the Renaissance Singers of the greater Orangeville area.

The fare will includes the English groaning board (roast beef dinner with appetizer, green beans almondine; garlic, red-skin whipped potatoes, and a wonderful dessert). Upon request, we offer an alternative meal.
