About the event
By Peter Morgan Directed by Stephen Daldry ★★★★★ ‘Wholly tremendous.’ – Daily Telegraph ★★★★★ ‘Funny and truthful.’ – The Times ★★★★ ‘Helen Mirren makes The Audience a right-royal night out.’ – The Independent For 60 years, Queen Elizabeth II met with each of her 12 prime ministers in a private weekly meeting. This meeting is known as The Audience. From Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher and David Cameron, the Queen advised her prime ministers on matters both public and personal. Through these private audiences, we see glimpses of the woman behind the crown and witness the moments that shaped a monarch. Peter Morgan’s Netflix phenomenon The Crown was based on this hit play that was captured live from London’s West End in 2013, which went on to become one of the most-watched NT Live productions. Now, experience this immersive live screening on the big screen at Esplanade!
