To sing - to dance - to laugh! This is the magic brought by merry-hearted young Greensleeves, a vagabond singer and storyteller, to the sad kingdom of Princess Miranda and her two younger sisters. Miranda's country has been taken over by the harsh and tyrannical grand duchess of a neighboring land under whose decree everyone must be fearful and unhappy and greet each other by saying, "A bad morning to you, sir," or, "Un-happy birthday, Miranda." Greensleeves' arrival brings change. Bit by bit, in spite of one obstacle after another, including the grand duchess' imprisonment of Miranda's mother and father, Greensleeves coaxes and challenges Miranda to find the courage within herself to sing, to laugh, and to dance. By doing so she will break the power of the evil duchess, freeing her parents from captivity and winning for her countrymen the freedom to be happy.
