About This Event
Royce Ryton's gripping mystery drama arrives at the Theatre Royal, starring Jenny Seagrove as the woman who claimed to be Grand Duchess Anastasia, the last surviving daughter of Tsar Nicholas II. Blending courtroom tension with sweeping historical intrigue, the play weighs the evidence for and against one of the twentieth century's most enduring riddles.\n\nThe production plays its final performances this weekend, with an evening show on Friday and both a matinee and evening on Saturday. The Theatre Royal's grade-I listed auditorium on Grey Street makes a fitting setting for a story of empire, identity and doubt.
