By Royal Appointment at the Everyman Theatre

Tuesday 17 - Saturday 21 June 2025

By Royal Appointment | A Theatrical Tribute to Queen Elizabeth II

By Royal Appointment is a witty and moving new play offering a glimpse behind the royal curtain, revealing how Queen Elizabeth II wielded power through her wardrobe. While the late Queen remained famously discreet, her coats and hats spoke volumes—charming the world and subtly guiding her family.

At the heart of this story is the Queen’s Dresser, a working-class woman who rises to a position of influence, only to find that royal favour is fleeting. With humour and poignancy, this production celebrates the monarchy’s most enduring figure in a way never seen before.

Starring Anne Reid as The Queen and Caroline Quentin as The Dresser, the play is penned by Daisy Goodwin, creator of ITV’s Victoria, and directed by Dominic Dromgoole, former Artistic Director of Shakespeare’s Globe.

A must-see for lovers of history, fashion, and royal intrigue, this production is set to be an unmissable night at the theatre.
