The audience

the long version

For sixty years, Queen Elizabeth II has met with each of her twelve Prime Ministers in a private weekly audience. The discussions are utterly secret, even to the royal and ministerial spouses. Peter Morgan imagines these meetings over the decades of the Queen's remarkable reign, through Prime Ministers from Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher to the 2014 incumbent David Cameron. The Audience is a glimpse into the woman behind the crown, and the moments that have shaped the modern monarchy.
