Honorin, a naïve stage manager of a travelling troupe, dreams of playing the cavalier in the opera “Francis I, or the Loves of the Beautiful Ferroniere.” A hypnotist’s spell sends him into Renaissance dreams where Henry VIII makes him a duke, he duels, endures medieval tortures, and amusingly brings 20th‑century ideas to Francis I’s court.
