Inspired by historical events, a royal scandal ignites a blistering fire between the steely Queen Mother and her children’s doting nanny in Melanie Tait’s new comedic drama, The Queen’s Nanny. The production comes to Wollongong direct from its world premiere season at Sydney’s Ensemble Theatre.
Marion ‘Crawfie’ Crawford adored her job as governess to Princesses Lilibet and Margaret Rose… until she was ostracised, despite dedicating the best part of her life to raising, educating and caring for the young royals.
The reason? A tell-all memoir.
From the creative team behind the nation-wide success of The Appleton Ladies’ Potato Race (now a feature film starring Claire Van De Boom), this black comedy imagines a series of pivotal moments between two strong-spirited women harbouring complicated resentment.
