Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh Join Lady Louise Windsor for West End Night Out at Inala
The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh were joined by their daughter Lady Louise Windsor and her boyfriend Felix da Silva-Clamp at a Friday evening performance of Inala at the House of Sisters Grimm Theatre in the West End (HELLO! magazine).
Inala is a Zulu ballet conceived to celebrate diversity and African culture, with choreography by Mark Baldwin OBE and music co-written by Joseph Shabalala, Ladysmith Black Mambazo and Ella Spira (HELLO! magazine). The show's own website describes it as a 55-minute journey of music, dance and storytelling, calling it a "South African musical phenomenon" and a "global success story" (House of Sisters Grimm). It is also billed as a Grammy-nominated experience (Sisters Grimm, Facebook).
Photographs of the family at the performance were credited to the Instagram account @fleetin_moment (HELLO! magazine).
For the production company, the royal visit carried a particular resonance. Chiara, a member of the Sisters Grimm team, told HELLO! it was special to welcome the Duke and Duchess and their children to Inala twelve years after its world premiere in Edinburgh (HELLO! magazine). The company has performed previously for the Prince and Princess of Wales at the Royal Variety Performance and for Prince Harry at Hampton Court Palace (HELLO! magazine).
Lady Louise, 22, is the elder child of the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh. She and da Silva-Clamp reportedly met at the University of St Andrews (HELLO! magazine). The Daily Mail reported that the two struck up a friendship when they were cast in the first student-written play performed at the Byre Theatre at St Andrews (HELLO! magazine). Da Silva-Clamp has since attended Lady Louise's carriage driving competitions, and trainer Sara Howe told HELLO! that her "lad" is "just lovely" (HELLO! magazine).
The House of Sisters Grimm, which opened as a permanent West End venue, describes itself as a multidisciplinary, immersive space and the "forever home" of Inala Live (Instagram). The show was scheduled to open on 15 January 2026, with tickets going on sale from 5 February 2026 (Official London Theatre).
