Queenswood Drama Scholars

The Queenswood Drama scholars tackle Mark Twain's 1898 play about a fictional version of the great French painter Jean-François Millet who, with the help of his colleagues, stages his death in order to increase the value of his paintings, and afterwards dresses as a woman to keep his secret safe.

Combining elements of burlesque, farce, and social satire the story raises questions about fame, greed, and the value of art.
