Maximilian I has recently been declared the Emperor of Mexico by Napoleon III. But his administration soon comes under attack by the revolutionary Benito Juarez. He is confronted with one of the greatest dilemmas an Emperor has ever faced; to shave his beard, or to die by firing squad.

- Wendy Rosenfield, Broad St. Review
"When this engaging play ends, less than an hour after its 6:30pm start, Davis serves Los Amigos’s treats (also available for purchase) and the little shop becomes a cozy party."
