Nina Cassells is the young Queen Elizabeth I, the only unmarried woman to rule England. She reigned for forty-four years.

This new play by writer Ella Hickson and director Natalie Abrahami @The_Globe shines a candlelight on the ways and means by which women in power negotiate patriarchal pressure in order to get their way.

Wishing everybody a very Happy New Year!
