All's Well That Ends Well

Michael R. Klein Theatre
450 7th Street NW Washington

Helena, the daughter of a physician, cures the ailing King of France using the skills her late father taught her. In return, the King promises her the husband of her choice, unaware that the non-committal Count Bertram is the object of her affection. Confronted with the decree of a king, Bertram attempts to escape the impending union through his harsh words, disdainful actions and a romance with Diana, the daughter of the widow who keeps his hostel. Will Bertram succeed in his quest to remain unencumbered, or will he give into the ever-persistent Helena?
