THE Cinnamon Heart,
Dramatis Personæ.
Synopsis of Scenery.
The Cinnamon Heart.
ACT I.
ACT II.
ACT III.
In a delightfully confectionary kingdom, the courtyard of Castle Nougat buzzes with hopeful suitors, each clutching a guitar and a heart full of sugary devotion to the golden‑haired Princess Caramella. Their verses mingle with the scent of melted ice‑cream and the clang of a door‑bell, turning a simple morning call into an exuberant serenade that feels as much a playful chant as a courtly petition.
Amid the clangor, the witty maid Sassyfrass and a chorus of attendants intervene, reminding the lovers that proper introductions are as essential as the sweet treats that line the palace halls. As the suitors scramble to present their credentials, the drama hints at a deeper intrigue—rumors of a hidden laboratory where alchemical candy is brewed, promising both humor and mystery. Listeners are invited to follow the fragrant rivalry and discover whether love can truly melt the toughest of confectionery hearts.

Best known as a Providence architect, he also left behind an unexpectedly playful literary side. His surviving book, co-written in 1881, is a light comic fantasy that hints at a lively sense of humor beyond the drafting table.
