SEVEN AGES OF MA’AM 1990

The summer of The Winter’s Tale was the year of the 90th birthday of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, Lord Warden of The Cinque Ports. As Lord Warden, Walmer Castle was one of her residences. The Project decided to celebrate her birthday and thank her for her kindness in opening up the castle to their productions with a one-off birthday event – The Seven Ages of Ma’am. A script was written, the entire Winter’s Tale cast took part, joined by many additional actors from the local community. The Band of The Royal Marines who were headquartered in the town put on their uniforms and made music. Hundreds came to witness and picnic on the grass.

We have no cast list for this show in our archive. If you were in it, or saw it and have a copy of the programme – do get in touch!  email: museum@dealmuseum.uk
