The Audience - ACTING EDITION $13

Peter Morgan

Published by Dramatists Play Service

Large Mixed Cast
For sixty years, Queen Elizabeth II has met with each of her twelve Prime Ministers in a private weekly audience

The discussions are utterly secret - even to the royal and ministerial spouses

Here Peter Morgan imagines these meetings over the decades of the Queen's remarkable reign, through Prime Ministers from Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher to the 2015 incumbent David Cameron

An award-winning tour-de-force for Helen Mirren, it gives a glimpse into the woman behind the crown, and the moments that have shaped the modern monarchy

"The surprise element in Peter Morgan's highly entertaining playis its imaginative range, lack of sentimentality and incisive intelligence" ~ WhatsOnStage.com

"Hugely enjoyable and cumulatively very affecting" ~ The Independent
