The Royal Shakespeare Company’s production of Queen Anne will transfer to the London’s Theatre Royal Haymarket in June.
The play explores the life of one of England’s little-known sovereigns and her intimate friendship with her childhood confidante Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough.
Romola Garai will star as Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough alongside Emma Cunniffe as the eponymous monarch.
The production will run for thirteen weeks, until 30 September.
