London Theatre: THIS HOUSE
Sun (May 19) 2pm

Set in the engine rooms of Westminster, James Graham’s This House strips politics down to the practical

London Theatre: THE AUDIENCE
Thurs (June 13) 7pm

National Theatre from London
(Almost) Live via HD SatelliteTHE AUDIENCE by Peter Morgan

Helen Mirren reprises the role of Queen Elizabeth II in Peter Morgan’s new play, which focuses on the monarch’s weekly meetings with Britain’s prime ministers.

It’s already one of the hottest tickets of the theater year in London, but international audiences will also get a chance to see Helen Mirren in The Audience when a performance of the play is broadcast live to movie screens around the world on June 13.

Directed by Stephen Daldry, the production reunites Mirren with playwright Peter Morgan, who wrote the screenplay for The Queen. That 2006 Stephen Frears film earned Mirren a best actress Oscar for the title role of Queen Elizabeth II. She steps back into the shoes of the British sovereign in this new play, which provides a fictionalized account of the monarch’s weekly closed-door chats with her prime ministers during her six decades on the throne.

Tickets are $15 (General/Senior) and $10 (Student 5-17 yrs). Please do not bring children under 5 years. Call the theatre at 604.885.4597 to have your tickets held for pickup.
