Harriet Thorpe is to Star as The Princess Margaret in A PRINCESS UNDONE
Kensington Palace, 1993. She was the Diana of her day. That day has gone. But HRH The Princess Margaret has a final chance to be of service. Acquiring sensational letters from Charles and Diana, she means to burn them all. But there are other papers, relating to Margaret herself. And when an ex-gangster admirer shows up, the Queen's sister has the choice to make or break her family yet again. As dynamic as anything in the current Netflix series The Crown, and yet as human, A Princess Undone - inspired by actual events - sheds light on one of the Royal Family's most controversial members.
A Princess Undone embarks on a short UK tour including:
Chelmsford Civic Theatre (Thursday 5 October - Saturday 7 October); New Theatre Royal Lincoln (Thursday 12 - Saturday 14 October); Salisbury Playhouse (Monday 16 - Saturday 21 October); and Malvern Theatres (Tuesday 31 October - Saturday 4 November).
London 2018 transfer to be announced soon!
The cast also features award-winning David Benson as Backstairs Billy, the Queen Mother's butler; Giles Cooper and Charles Daish as ex-gangster John Bindon.
The show is directed by Richard Stirling, with designer Norman Coates, lighting designer Mike Robertson, and produced by Entico Ltd.
