The heaters aren't working, the sun won't rise, the throne room's filthy and there's a great big crack opening up in the wall. Queen Marguerite is making preparations for the inevitable, but Queen Marie refuses to accept it's time. Yet the signs are unmistakable: the King is dying, and he's not going to go gracefully.
This production transferred to Belvoir St, 9 June - 29 July.
