The Queen’s Nanny

$24.99



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 sparkling new comedy-drama.

Marion ‘Crawfie’ Crawford adored her job as governess to Princesses Lilibet and Margaret Rose until she was ostracised without warning – despite dedicating the best part of her life to raising, educating and caring for the young royals. The reason? A tell-all memoir.

This blackly funny play imagines a series of pivotal moments between two strong-spirited women harbouring complicated resentment.
