A behind the scenes peek into the world of our most popular monarch and the image she presented to the world. She charms the world through coats and admonishes her family through a carefully chosen hat.
A funny, poignant and celebratory new play
Starring national treasure Jane Asher (Alfie, Death at a Funeral, Deep End) as The Queen, this smash hit play is written by Daisy Goodwin who created the hit ITV series Victoria.
The late Queen Elizabeth II was famous for her discretion. She never said anything in public that could ruffle the lightest of feathers. But she had one way of expressing what she really thought – through her wardrobe.
But the Queen herself is uninterested in fashion, her look is managed by her Designer, her Milliner and most powerful of all, her Dresser who was a working-class girl who goes from advising the Queen on the colour of her lipsticks to the real power behind the throne. But the Dresser – like all royal favourites – is living on borrowed time.
