Dame Helen Mirren was clearly not happy with the noisy drummers during Saturday night’s show. The Oscar-award winning actress, stormed out of the Gielgud Theatre in London wearing her royal outfit and headed for the conductor.
Witnesses said they heard Dame Helen Mirren saying the F-word at least 20 times. They also claimed that Dame Helen said that the people who were watching the show paid hundreds of pounds for their tickets.
Mr O'Leary, the organiser of the As One In The Park gay music festival said that the 25 drummers quickly stopped playing and moved on after Dame Helen’s rants.
Comedian Chris Dangerfield, who was there and witnessed the incident told the Mirror: "I saw a woman come out of the stage door and I knew it was Helen Mirren straight away.
"You could tell she was angry as she pushed her way through the crowds in a blue cardigan and confronted the conductor of the troupe.
"She was flailing her arms around and repeatedly gesturing towards the theatre."
Dame Helen later on shared the story on stage telling audience she sorted the drummers using some not polite language.
