Chess is a game of a few, simple rules with one above all others: always fear the queen. Join the FMP team as they take us through a cutthroat chess match in Killer Queen’s Gambit, an unexpected musical melding of Faure, Susato… and Freddie Mercury. Marrying a clever, hip musical book to a clear, highly effective visual storyline makes for a production your students will love to perform, audiences will want to cheer, and judges won’t hesitate to reward. Every move is a high stakes gamble in this game, but ultimately you will reign triumphant, for you… are the Queen.
