abstract:Balmoral Castle is a large estate house in Royal Deeside, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It is located near the village of Crathie, west of Ballater and east of Braemar.
Not that this matters much, as "The Audience, " at London's Gielgud Theatre, is a vehicle for the country's favorite actress, Helen Mirren, and also for the designer, Bob Crowley, who wows us with his replicas of the infinitely receding columns of Buckingham Palace and a sitting-room in the queen's Scottish castle, Balmoral.
The Queen Mother's passing is being mourned across Scotland - particularly at Glamis Castle in Angus, where she grew up in the early years of last century, Crathie Church near Balmoral on Royal Deeside and the Castle of Mey in Caithness.
