LEVEL 3 Spring Play QUEENS Director: Meg Parker Wilson Level: III (7th-8th Graders) SYNOPSIS: King Henry VIII is trapped in purgatory and bound to his throne by a sinister Fool, and the ghostly Women in White. Here in his gilded cage, he is forced to relive the sins he committed against his Queens and people, over and over again for an eternity. Part historical drama, part dark comedy, Queens explores power, survival and reputation through the voices of the women history often reduced to a single sentence: divorced, beheaded, died, survived.
