The monarch. Her most powerful subject. Two enduring icons born six months apart. One destined to rule, the other elected to lead. But when the stiff upper lip softened and the gloves came off, which one had the upper hand? Handbagged is the ‘wickedly funny' (Evening Standard) hit-comedy that opens the clasp on the relationship between two giants of the 20th Century, Margaret Thatcher and Her Majesty The Queen Elizabeth II. Moira Buffini's ‘irresistibly mischievous' (The Independent) comedy speculates on that most provocative of questions: What did the world's most powerful women talk about behind closed palace doors? Handbagged won the outstanding achievement in affiliate theatre 2014 Olivier Award. Age guidance: 12+
