YouthWorks Takes Us to Elizabethan England Next Weekend

YouthWorks continues it season with The Pauper Princess March 3-19, a girl power retelling of the classic story The Prince and the Pauper. Two identical-looking people from completely different backgrounds switch places. Rich swaps with poor, poor swaps with rich. Before Queen Elizabeth ascended the throne, she was just Princess Elizabeth, fending off suitors too old and too fat.

Theresa wears rags and scrounges for food. She's so desperate she pretends to be a boy so she can be in a play. When Princess and Pauper come face-to-face, when one becomes the other, when King Henry VIII dies and everyone is vying for the Great Seal of England (and we don't mean the sea animal) who knows what will happen? Maybe Shakespeare has a clue...
