As Anna, Mariella and Jane begin to see echoes of the royal drama in their own rural lives, a tide of violence threatens their very existence. What began as playful gossip darkens into something far more dangerous — exposing how the politics of the crown can crush the lives of ordinary women, and how little the dynamics of power have changed.

Written by Ava Pickett — winner of the 2024 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, two Critics' Circle Awards, the Standard Theatre Award for Most Promising Young Playwright, and a commendation from the George Devine Award — this is one of the most decorated debut plays in recent British theatre history. Pickett is currently co-writing Baz Luhrmann's film Jehanne d'Arc alongside the director.

Following a sold-out, critically acclaimed world premiere at the Almeida Theatre in 2025, the production transfers to the West End with its original cast intact: BAFTA-nominee Liv Hill (Three Girls), BAFTA-nominee Siena Kelly (Black Mirror) and Olivier Award-nominee Tanya Reynolds (Sex Education). Produced by Sonia Friedman and co-produced by Margot Robbie's LuckyChap Entertainment — who called it "fearless, witty and emotionally resonant" — this is the play everyone in London is talking about.
