Sophie returned to the Stephen Joseph Theatre to rehearse for ‘Two Weeks With The Queen’ a play adapted by Mary Morris from a novel by Morris Gleitzman and with music by John Pattison. Directed by Alan Ayckbourn this was a co - production with the Royal National Theatre. Following its successful season in Scarborough it was seen at the Old Laundry Theatre, Bowness before opening at The Cottesloe Theatre for an extended season. Although written for a young audience its success with adults was in part due to the highly inventive direction and the cast’s gifts for comedy. Sophie in her multiple roles of Mum/Aunt Iris and Bag-lady was aided and abetted by Dorothy Atkinson, Philip Bird, Peter Forbes, Sean McKenzie, and Tamblyn Lord. The Musical Director was Simon Cryer.
