Details

powerful and gripping drama, focusing on the crisis which faces the nation when Edward VIII declares his deep love for Wallis Simpson. Unswayed by the prospect of public scandal, family upheaval and even abdication, he is insistent that he will marry the woman he loves. Beautifully capturing the atmosphere of the Royal Household in the 1930s and with themes as resonant today as seventy years ago, this is a unique opportunity to witness one of our country’s favourite actresses in a touching portrayal of one of the nation’s most enigmatic queens. <a href="http://www.crownmatrimonial.whatsonstage.com">Website</a>
