 DIANA is the breathtaking new musical which tells the story of one of the most beloved women of modern times. Engaged to a prince she barely knows, 19-year-old Diana Spencer is thrust onto the world stage and, overnight, becomes the most famous woman in the world. While she struggles to navigate her way within the rigid structure of the royal family, finding herself trapped in a loveless marriage, and being forced to endure a media spotlight brighter than the world has ever known, Princess Diana defies all expectations and emerges as her own woman to create a legacy that will endure forever.
