Peter Fedor, a stage actor in the kingdom of SherbIandt, faces a royaI dilemma: in reaI Iife, he must masquerade as a prince and win the hand of a princess. If he fails, his punishment wiIl be death. If he succeeds, his reward wilI be imprisonment!
Desperate to alIy themseIves with the neighboring kingdom of Kordovia, Sherblandt's ruIers hope to forge an alIiance with the marriage of their Prince Alexis to Kordovia's Princess Katerina.
The ne'er-do-well prince refuses to court her, so Peter -- a dead-ringer for the prince -- is enlisted to impersonate him and woo the lovely lady. Peter wiIl need to be on guard, as a Kordovian duke has his eye on Katerina and has been arranging fataI 'accidents' for aII of her suitors!
The oId 'Prisoner of Zenda' adventure gimmick of a look-alike taking the pIace of a country's Ieader also worked well for comedies, from The Great Dictator and The Great Race to this royaI farce, based on a then-recent Broadway play. Up-and-coming comedy queen Thelma Todd appears in Command Performance's opening sequence. |
