King George Coulam rules over the Texas Renaissance Festival as its founder, elected mayor, and employer to thousands. But as his power—and the festival’s coffers—have grown, Coulam has hardened into an object of fear. When King George suddenly announces his retirement to focus on his romantic life, a battle erupts amongst the festival’s body politic. The festival’s general manager and heir apparent must fight for his place in the kingdom against a kettle-corn kingpin and a former elephant trainer, both eager to remake the festival in their own image. Their feud ascends to Shakespearian heights in this three-part docu-fantasia from director Lance Oppenheim, Elara Pictures, and HBO.
