Encore Screenings of THE AUDIENCE Starring Helen Mirren at World Trade Center Theater Set for 9/7-8

By:

Two Portland encore screenings of THE AUDIENCE, starring Helen Mirren have been set for Saturday, September 7 at 2pm and 7pm and Sunday, September 8 at 2pm and 7pm at World Trade Center Theater, 121 SW Salmon Street, Portland, OR 97204.

Tickets are $15 - $20 and available by phone at 503.235.1101, online at thirdrailrep.org, or Portland Center for the performing Arts Box Office (1111 SW Broadway).

Helen Mirren reprises her Academy Award winning role as Queen Elizabeth II in the highly-anticipated West End production of The Audience, broadcast live from London's Gielgud Theatre as part of National Theatre Live.

For sixty years Elizabeth II has met each of her twelve Prime Ministers in a weekly audience at Buckingham Palace - a meeting like no other in British public life - it is private. Both parties have an unspoken agreement never to repeat what is said. Not even to their spouses. The Audience breaks this contract of silence - and imagines a series of pivotal meetings between the Downing Street incumbents and their Queen. From Churchill to Cameron, each Prime Minister has used these private conversations as a sounding board and a confessional - sometimes intimate, sometimes explosive.

From young mother to grandmother, these private audiences chart the arc of the second Elizabethan Age. Politicians come and go through the revolving door of electoral politics, while she remains constant, waiting to welcome her next Prime Minister.

The Audience reunites writer Peter Morgan and Academy Award-winning actress Helen Mirren following their collaboration on the critically-acclaimed movie sensation The Queen.

The Audience is directed by Academy Award-nominated director Stephen Daldry (Billy Elliot, The Hours) and presented in the West End by Matthew Byam Shaw for Playful Productions, Robert Fox and Andy Harries.
