Plays and Operas

The Judge of Muffey

by Fruvini, circa 2540

A comic opera involving a galdori Judge's daughter falling in love with the son of the judge's hated rival. When the son sends his letter of intent, the judge forbids his daughter from marrying him. All seems lost, until it is revealed that the young man is really the long-lost son of the judge's second wife, from her first marriage. The opera is ridiculously complicated and far-fetched, but Fruvini's word-play and political satire have made it a classic, and it is still performed to this day.
