Episode description

SCT Jr 2020 Online Program is proud to present

The King is in Double Trouble a play written by Terence Patrick Hughes and directed by Sara St. Pierre

The King is in Double Trouble is an adaptation of the ancient Asian chessboard myth. A medieval court is turned upside down when a mathematically challenged king is too proud to admit his problem with math problems and winds up in a chessboard wager with a wise man, which may wind up bankrupting the kingdom! A wild cast of supporting characters try to help their leader by introducing the importance (and the fun!) of Math and urging the king to realize that pride should never be a prime factor in life. Oh, yes, there is a musical number, too. So, if the times tables are getting a little boring...try it with a round table!
