Mourning Glory archiveBased on the funeral of Diana, Princess of Wales. The show was first performed in 1998 at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and also ran in January 1999, at the Sydney Opera House, as part of the Sydney Festival. In September 1997 the entire country ground to a halt for the Funeral of the Century. They said that 'nothing would ever be the same again' yet only five years later, the events of that day and the week leading up to it have taken on a surreal vagueness. Who can now remember which celebrity mourners showed up to pay their respects at Westminster Abbey? What unprecedented gesture did the Queen make as the coffin passed the front door? And just who, if anyone, was responsible for Diana's death, anyway?
