| Summary: | A musical about Chirita, a noble woman who returns from Paris to the Moldavian Principality and has problems readjusting to "backward" Moldova.

The characters mix Romanian with French expressions and phrases, thus creating hilarious situations. Coana Chirita is a classical 'demi-monde' character in Romanian literature. |
