Disclaimer: I don’t know if anyone is actually interested in my play reviews, but if not, no worries. Apologies for the poor writing, shoddy spelling and grammar, and general rambling.
The Audience is something of an oddity - a mixture between fact and fiction, with performances that sit somewhere between impersonations and something deeper. On the whole the play is a success; visually arresting, beautifully and cleverly staged (Mirren’s costume changes are both brilliant and delightfully executed) and in general just a wonderfully theatrical experience.
