Queen by Madhuri Shekar is a sharp, thought-provoking play about ethics, friendship, and the intersection of science and activism. It follows two passionate Ph.D. candidates, Sanam Shah (played by Mehr Dudeja) and Ariel Speigel (by Noah Michal), whose groundbreaking research on bees is about to change the world—until a shocking discovery forces them to choose between their careers and their conscience.
