A playful, sharply observed period comedy about rule-bending and rivalry, with a light but pointed edge.

How it feels: Satirical, whimsical, tense and warm. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Gender, identity, class, ambition
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
