Alumnae Theatre play - Belle Darling Klondike Queen

FireWorks Festival 2023

The Great Kelleys
by Natalie Frijia

Director: 
Shannon Farrell
Producers: Mihaela Kiraca, Sarah Muhoza, Anupriya Basu, Twisha Thakar, and Trisha Harlan

November 22-26, 2023 
in the Studio Theatre


​When Pat Kelley dies, his wife sends him to bed with a hot bowl of soup and a firm belief that he will rise again. The kids are less certain, the neighbours are nosey, and their friends know no boundaries. It’s only a matter of time before someone outside their four walls learns too much about the mad Kelley household in which one is praying, one is plotting, one is killing time, and one is rotting in the upstairs bedroom.  This dark, farcical comedy is a story of grief, hope, and family.
