What's on
WAF: The Queen, Shakespeare and Me
WAF and Carole Shaw present The Queen, Shakespeare and Me at The Bedford in The Ballroom. An affectionate musical comedy tribute to the world’s longest-serving monarch – a thoroughly modern, fully empowered female role model who headed up a country & united a commonwealth for over 70 years, earning respect, admiration & affection from around the world & defining the post-war era.
HM reflects on her long life, revealing her ‘all’ to her people – her undying love for her corgis, the men in her life, her singlehanded success at forging peace processes, her secret passion for motorbikes – with a surprise ‘coming out’ at 96. “Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety”.
BOOK YOUR TICKETJoin the singing, dancing Queen for tea, free cake & biscuits, with audience participation, Shakespeare, SingalongaLiz & quiz. Handbag – the regal older lady’s Fleabag & the UK’s answer to Mrs Maisel! We may mourn the end of an era, but HM would not have wished us to be miserable.
“A solid, warm performance with delightfully silly moments” ★★★ The Reviews Hub
