Synopsis
Academy Award-winner Helen Mirren - who launched NT Live starring in Phédre in June 2009- plays Queen Elizabeth II in the critically acclaimed and Tony Award®-winning production of The Audience returns to cinemas on Monday, June 3. Captured live from London’s West End in 2013, this play takes viewers into the private weekly meetings between Queen Elizabeth II and her prime ministers over a period of 60 years – from Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher and beyond. The creative team, Peter Morgan and Stephen Daldry have gone on to have another royal success with the television program, The Crown, since The Audience was first presented.
