Summary
"A Letter for Queen Victoria is Wilson's deepest exploration of a world opened up to him by Christopher Knowles, an autistic boy whom he met in 1973 and immediately began to work with. In Queen Victoria, language plays a central role in Wilson's work for the first time: a language of non sequiturs, of commonplace utterances, of sheer vocal sound. Queen Victoria is also the first Wilson play to feature a tightly integrated musical score, a remarkable chamber piece written by Alan Lloyd for string quartet."--robertwilson.com
