Description

The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to partner with Theatrikos Theatre Company to bring movies to Downtown Flagstaff!


This series continues on Wednesday, Dec. 18 with the Flagstaff premiere of “Queen Bees” at 7:00 p.m. at Theatrikos Theatre Company.


“Queen Bees” was the highest-rated film by the audience at the 2021 Sedona International Film Festival, where it earned the Audience Choice Best Comedy Award.


The film boasts an award-winning, stellar ensemble cast, including Ellen Burstyn, James Caan, Ann-Margret, Loretta Devine, Jane Curtin and Christopher Lloyd.


“Queen Bees” is a comedy about the young at heart.


While her house undergoes repairs, fiercely independent senior Helen (Academy Award-winner Ellen Burstyn) moves into a nearby retirement community ? just temporarily.


Once behind the doors of Pine Grove Senior Community, she encounters lusty widows, cutthroat bridge tournaments and a hotbed of bullying “mean girls,” the likes of which she hasn’t encountered since high school, all of which leaves her yearning for the solitude of home.


But somewhere between flower arranging and water aerobics Helen discovers that it’s never too late to make new friends and perhaps even find a new love.



Theatrikos Theatre Company is located at 11 W. Cherry Ave. in Downtown Flagstaff.



This partnership and collaboration is made possible by a generous grant from Arizona Community Foundation of Flagstaff
