Mirren has received an Academy Award and a BAFTA Award for her portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II in ''The Queen'', a Tony Award and a Laurence Olivier Award for portraying the same character in ''The Audience'', as well as three British Academy Television Awards and four Primetime Emmy Awards for her role as DCI Jane Tennison in ''Prime Suspect''.Mirren's stage performance as Cleopatra in ''Antony and Cleopatra'' at the National Youth Theatre in 1965 provided her an opportunity to join the Royal Shakespeare Company, before making her West End stage debut in 1975. She subsequently achieved success in film and television, appearing in films such as ''The Madness of King George'' (1994), ''Gosford Park'' (2001), and ''The Last Station'' (2009), receiving Academy Award nominations for each of those performances.
