This musical, hot off the
broadway stage, features something for everyone,
guillotines, sword fights, lavish costumes, and fops! During
the French Revolution, actress Marguerite St. Just is
married to a british gentleman, Sir Percy Blakeney, much to

leading to the death of the Marquis and his family. Percy
discovers Marguerite's involvement in the death of the
Marquis and plots with a band of men to save future victims
of Madame Guillotine from her bite. This sword weilding band
of men not only swash their buckles, but their lace and
garters too in an attempt to throw the French government off
their trail. What results is a wild series of rescues and a
suspenseful climax "bound" to make you stand and applaud!
