Some wonderful feedback from 'An Audience with Queen Victoria'.

One week ago, Rosemary Hill performed her new play at Market Hall, Wolverton. This was the first play to be performed at the brand new arts and culture venue. 

Thank you to everyone who joined us on the two evenings. It was fantastic to see so many familiar faces and some new ones too. Thank you all for your support. 

Here are just a few pieces of feedback we have received 🥰

🎭 Enjoy an evening of theatre TONIGHT at Market Hall, Wolverton at 7.30pm.

Rosemary Hill is Queen Victoria in her new play ‘An Audience with Queen Victoria’.

Only a handful of tickets left! 

It’s 1887 and the year of my Golden Jubilee and fifty years since I came to the throne as a young girl of eighteen. Please do come and spend the evening with me and hear all about these last fifty years. There have been many happy memories and great successes, but also sadness. You can ask me questions too and I shall endeavour to answer honestly.

👑 AN AUDIENCE WITH QUEEN VICTORIA PR GIFTED

I was invited along to An Audience with Queen Victoria at Wolverton Market Hall, and I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this.

Stepping into a hushed room with Queen Victoria waiting to tell us about her life, family and years on the throne was such a brilliant way to spend an evening. 
Rosemary Hill’s research is incredible, bringing so much detail to this one-woman performance and making Victorian history genuinely fascinating.

Being invited to ask questions opened up the conversation and gave us the chance to discover much more about Queen Victoria, her family and life as a monarch. 
There was plenty of laughter along the way, with a wonderful sense of humour coming through alongside the more serious and poignant moments.

The atmosphere in the room was quite remarkable. The performance was so immersive that at times it genuinely felt as though we were sitting in the presence of Queen Victoria herself. There was a real sense of being transported back in history, with the audience completely captivated.

I’m a huge fan of Rosemary’s work and would highly recommend seeing her performances. If you enjoy history, theatre, live performance or discovering something a little different to do in Milton Keynes, this is well worth looking out for.

It was also lovely to see such a historic building being brought to life again as a new arts and cultural venue. Market Hall itself dates back to 1887, the same year as Victoria’s Golden Jubilee, making this feel like a particularly fitting way to open its new chapter. Hopefully, this is the first of many glorious live performances to take place here.

🎭 Queen Victoria visited Market Hall, Wolverton before her perfomance this weekend!

Rosemary Hill visited the newly opened arts and culture venue in Wolverton to join the Family Tea Party on 20th September. Future Wolverton and Sustainable MK brought this wonderful tradition back, and it was a lovely experience with a wonderful community. 

Rosemary is performing her new play 'An Audience with Queen Victoria' at Market Hall this Friday (25th) and Saturday (26th), so appeared in her wonderful costume created by Susan Lee Burton. 

Great thanks to Philippa Tipper and Marie Osborne and the team at Market Hall. It was good to meet MP Chris Curtis, who popped in to say “hello”.

In a week we will be opening our doors to the public for the first performance here at Market Hall! We’re honoured to have Rosemary Hill bring her “Audience with Queen Victoria” - Rather fitting for a building opened during her reign, she even referred to Wolverton as “A charming little red brick town” whilst on a visit!
