From computer engineer to Mrs. Florida to billionairess, Jackie Siegel sees herself as the embodiment of the American Dream. She and her husband, David “The Timeshare King” Siegel, invite you to behold their most grandiose venture yet: a $100 million house big enough for her dreams and inspired by the Palace of Versailles. But then Jackie and David’s dreams begin to crumble, along with their lavish lifestyle. “The Queen of Versailles” explores the true cost of fame, fortune and family.
Directed by Michael Arden, the show features a book by Lindsey Ferrentino and choreography by Lauren Yalango-Grant and Christopher Cree Grant.
