The dynamic journey of two amazing women; the royal queens of the Tudor and Stuart dynasties - Elizabeth I & Mary Queen of Scots.

A play of passion and treachery, witness the unavoidable collision between dynamic sovereigns, which shaped the destiny of the thrones of Scotland and England.

Enter the prison and the courts, private chambers and public processions as you journey with the cousins who called themselves Sister Queens.

It is a tale that has ignited the imagination for centuries.

Was the death of one the only answer?

Two images of a woman in a black dress on stage, in the left image she is holding a fan up to her face. In the right image she is sat in a chair reaching her hands up to the sky.

Spirited, highly-intelligent, powerful. A talented writer and actor, switching skilfully from one Queen to another without ever missing a beat.
