The Prince Incognito: A Comedy in Five Acts

By George Chu

A crown prince. A stolen identity. One term at university to find out if anyone could ever love him without the throne attached.

Crown Prince Leopold Ashdown of Belmoria is tired of being applauded for simply existing correctly. So he does the only sensible thing a runaway royal can do: he enrolls at Camford University under a false name, drags his exasperated valet along as cover, and sets out to discover who he is when nobody's watching.

Then he meets Lady Isabella Farrow - clever, guarded, and entirely done with suitors who love her family's name more than they love her. She's never met anyone as refreshingly, convincingly ordinary as "Leo Whitmore."

There's just one small complication: an entire royal search party quietly combing the campus for a missing heir, one increasingly nervous valet running out of cover stories, and a self-important lord convinced his umbrella poetry is finally about to pay off.

The Prince Incognito is a fast, witty, five-act comedy of mistaken identity in the classic tradition - written for the modern stage, full of banter, farce, and one genuinely satisfying happy ending.
