The Queen star will play Britain’s monarch Queen Elizabeth II again in The Audience, a new play by Peter Morgan, the screenwriter behind Mirren’s royal movie.
However, despite her lengthy career, the actress admits she still battles crippling nerves.
She tells Britain’s Woman & Home magazine, “I still suffer terribly from stage fright. I get sick with fear. Not every night, but at the beginning and on occasion – not necessarily when I’m expecting it. You just have to take it on the chin and work through it, trying to use the adrenaline to perform.”
