Set in eighteenth century New Orleans, Naughty Marietta, Revised 2018, is a story of those who search for love, those who search for honor, and those who hunger for power. A band of American colonists led by Captain Dick Warrington have vowed to capture the elusive pirate Bras Piqué. They also hope to find wives among the French casquette maids, who have arrived in New Orleans entrusted with dowries from the King. Among the arrivals is Marietta (the Contessa Marie D'Altena), who has traveled incognito in order to escape an arranged marriage. Marietta becomes torn between Captain Dick and the charming Etienne, who is actually Bras Piqué in disguise. A fun mix of cunning and dim-witted characters are eventually exposed for who they are, and all receive their just rewards and punishments. “Ah, sweet mystery of life!” |
