| Nanki-Poo (Walt Westlake), the son of the emperor, has been masquerading as a wandering minstrel in Titipu in an attempt to escape the attentions of the misguided Katisha (Alexa Devlin), an elderly woman of The Mikado's court. When she locates Nanki-Poo and commands him to restore her to her rightful place as his intended bride, he shuns her. |
