Game of Tiaras 

Resurrection's drama department presents the spring play,  Game of Tiaras. When the aging king of a Magical Kingdom decides to split his empire between his three daughters, Cinderella, Belle, and the Snow Queen (who in no way resembles a copyrighted character), terrible tragedy ensues. Terrible, hilarious tragedy. Combining the gut-wrenching plot twists of Game of Thrones and the soul-numbing despair of Shakespearean tragedy, this adaptation of King Lear will leave you dying with laughter.

Tickets are $7 in advance and $10 at the door for the general public
& $5 for Resurrection students.

Advance ticket reservations are available by calling 773.775.6616 Ext 110 during school hours.
