Eleven years of weekly, behind-closed-doors meetings, where the destiny of a nation is shaped.

Moira Buffini’s clever, funny and charming political comedy unlocks the palace door, imagining the untold conversations of two of history’s most powerful women: Queen Elizabeth II and Margaret Thatcher.

Ronald Reagan, Geoffrey Howe and Denis Thatcher provide biting satire and sharp humour as the gloves come off and personalities clash.

Twenty-five years later, with both women now gone, their shadows still loom large, as this Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch and Theatre Nation Partnerships production explores the legacy of this divisive premiership, leaving audiences to question what they truly know about those who decide our nation’s destiny.
