Handbagged

Moira Buffini’s clever, funny and charming political comedy.

An Olivier Award nominee in the Best New Comedy category, Handbagged speculates about the relationship between Her Majesty The Queen and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, two powerful and iconic women who were born in the same year. But what did the pair really talk about behind closed palace doors?

The play was written by Moira Buffini in 2010 and memorably described by the Metro as ‘a mischievous pleasure, with the sharp teeth of a kicked corgi’.

Originally intended to be a one-act show, Buffini expanded Handbagged in 2013, since which time it’s garnered plenty of praise from theatre critics and audiences alike.
