Thatcher-Rite


"Boal delivers a surprisingly nuanced portrayal of the former PM, breathing some remorse and self-awareness into the otherwise despicable beast" - The Upcoming

Combining lip-sync, clowning and verbatim theatre, bring your anger or admiration to tea with Mrs T. Cucumber sandwiches will be provided. But sadly, not for everyone.

4 willing audience members will be selected at random to join Margaret Thatcher onstage.

If you wish to have an on-stage experience as part of the show, please click here and fill out the audience participation form when booking your tickets.

Performed by Jack Boal, who grew up in Thatcher's former constituency, Thatcher-Rite puts the personal and political side by side. Her mark on the cultural, social, and political notions of Englishness begs the question: “Has Mrs Thatcher truly left us?”
