Produced in Montreal, the title of this 30 minute show referred to a name for the Elizabethan era. Like the theatre of that period, this show featured child actors, who performed plays for young viewers.  The stories included The Empress And The Four Seasons, about a young ruler who wished to control the seasons as well as her empire; and adaptations of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen and Oscar Wilde’s The Infanta’s Dwarf, called The Birthday Of The Infanta
