Wife, mother, lover, empress. The extraordinary story of Queen Victoria, brought to life by Northern Ballet and choreographed by Cathy Marston.

Premiered on 9 March 2019, and coinciding with the year that marks the 200th anniversary of Queen Victoria's birth, Northern Ballet鈥檚 Victoria captures the passions, tragedies and fierce devotion of the life of one of Britain鈥檚 most memorable monarchs.

Victoria鈥檚 diaries revealed intimate details of a life so fascinating that her daughter Princess Beatrice tried to rewrite history, removing any detail that might embarrass the royal family. The ballet is the story of Victoria鈥檚 amazing life, seen through the eyes of her youngest child and lifelong companion Beatrice as she relives her memories of her mother as a secluded widow before discovering sides to her that she never knew.

As she transcribes her mother鈥檚 diaries, Beatrice comes to discover Victoria鈥檚 progression from a lonely young princess to a confident ruler, her passionate love affair with Albert and her descent into all-consuming grief after his untimely death. Victoria was a mother, lover, wife and empress, and Beatrice, her ever-loving daughter, has left us with this incredible story to tell.

This performance of Victoria was filmed live at Sadler's Wells, London during the ballet's 2019 world premiere tour.
