April 9th, 1787. The crème of London society have joined The Prince of Wales to witness the fencing match between the ages two masters: Chevalier de Saint-Georges and Chevalier d'Eon. Saint-Georges, a black composer and d’Eon, a trans woman diplomat/spy, are both refuges from the revolutionary France.
