Following the final curtain there will be a ten minute interval during which time the Festival Company will be presented to Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh.

During this time, the curtain will be down and we ask that members of the audience remain in their seats until the Royal Party makes its departure through the auditorium.

God Save The Queen will be played as the Royal Party leaves the auditorium and it is requested that all guests remain in their places until the Royal Party has left the Festival Theatre.
