D'Artagnan yearns to join the King's Musketeers. But will his sharp sword and quick wit let him survive Paris' treacherous labyrinth of gossip, slander, intrigue and duels? When a favor for the Queen's handmaiden brings d'Artagnan afoul of the powerful Cardinal Richelieu, the daring youth befriends three Musketeers: Aramis, Porthos and Athos. Together, they fight to defend the Queen's honor and save the lady d'Artagnan loves -- but an intriguing woman known as "Milady" has other plans for him. This crisp new adaptation of Alexandre Dumas' popular romance is a fast-paced, swashbuckling adventure for the stage.
