Actors Benevolent Fund & QPAC to Host Morning Tea with Patricia Routledge
The Actors Benevolent Fund (Qld) and QPAC will present a very special Fundraising Morning Tea with the star of Admission: One Shilling - English stage and screen veteran Patricia Routledge.
In the intimate surrounds of the Lyrebird Restaurant, 100 guests only will be able to enjoy a delicious Morning Tea - including sweet and savoury treats (gluten free option) - which will be followed by an in-depth conversation with actress Patricia Routledge - concluding with a brief Question & Answer period.
Known to millions throughout the world as the redoubtable Hyacinth Buckett ("Bouquet") in Keeping Up Appearances and as the elderly sleuth in Hetty Wainthorp Investigates, Patricia is one of Britain's most distinguished actresses, regarded for her work in theatre, film, television and radio.
The recipient of the Tony Award for her performance in Darling of the Day, the Laurence Olivier Award for her performance in Leonard Bernstein's Candide, Top TV Comedy Actress and Personality of the Year Awards, she was further honoured in the special BBC 60th Anniversary Awards.
In 1993, Patricia was awarded the OBE for services to the Performing Arts and created CBE in 2004 for services to Drama.
