Marcelo Dos Santos’ new comedy BACKSTAIRS BILLY is coming to London's Duke of York's Theatre for a limited run this winter.
Tony and Olivier award-winning director Michael Grandage directs Penelope Wilton (Downton Abbey, Ever Decreasing Circles) as the Queen Mother and Luke Evans (Beauty and the Beast, Nine Perfect Strangers) as Billy, in a play which looks at a pivotal historical moment in the 50 year relationship between the Queen Mother and her loyal servant William “Billy” Tallon.
1979. Inside Clarence House, The Queen Mother’s receptions are in full swing and the champagne is flowing. Guiding the proceedings is William ‘Billy’ Tallon, holder of the royal corgis and Her Majesty’s loyal servant.
Outside, strikes are bringing the country to its knees and Britain is on the verge of changing seismically under Margaret Thatcher.
These two worlds are about to collide with dizzying consequences…..
