On The Scene: ‘Becoming Elizabeth’ Red Carpet Premiere

An evening filled with royalty, laughter, and tea are all used to describe the celebration of the “Becoming Elizabeth” red carpet premiere in New York City! 

The event took place on Tuesday, June 7th at the Plaza hotel. The star-studded premiere featured the majority of cast members, executive producers, and Starz president, Kathryn Busby. After the red carpet premiere, a private screening of the show took place at The Directors Guild of America in NYC, followed by an after party celebrating the entire evening!

Becoming Elizabeth is the story of Queen Elizabeth’s life during her childhood after the sudden passing of her father, King Henry VIII.

And of course, The Knockturnal was on the scene at the red carpet to get interviews of the stars, starting with the Queen herself, Alicia Von Rittberg:
