As if the golden touch weren't enough to scare Midas from his foolish ways, Act II - the lesser known part of the Midas myth - sees our foolish king committing another act of folly, second guessing the gods' judgment in a musical competition. For this he gets another punishment - donkey ears (Lord, what fools these mortals be!) How will Midas take his punishment, and will the consequences of his second folly be so easily unwished as the first?
