Old King Cole has been performed in many countries and translated into many languages.

This irreverent, knockabout farce has enjoyed enormous success in England, where children have screamed with laughter and excitement at the efforts of Faz and Twoo, a couple of likable rouges, as they strive to wreck the wedding of Princess Daphne Cole (daughter of that old king) to Cyril, sportiest of the king's fiddlers three. In this they are aided and abetted by an audience whose vociferous participation is vital to the machinations of the plot. Will the courageous Cyril defeat Baron Wadd (the weediest man who ever lived) and his minions Faz and Twoo, to win the hand of Princess Daphne? Of course he will!
