About Handbagged

Following the sold-out 2013 season and subsequent West End and New York runs The Queen and the Iron Lady are reunited once again on the Kiln stage.

The monarch. Her most powerful subject. Born six months apart, each had a destiny that would change the world. But when the stiff upper lip softened and the gloves came off, which one had the upper hand?

Indhu Rubasingham directs Moira Buffini’s wickedly funny hit-comedy that imagines what the world’s most powerful women Margaret Thatcher and Her Majesty The Queen Elizabeth II, talked about behind closed palace doors.

Great acting, Funny, Clever

See it if you enjoy satire. A clever appraisal of 80s politics with some great acting/ impressions.

Don’t see it if you have no interest in politics whatsoever- though different events are explained in a very accessible and amusing manner.
