THE TUDORS - LIVING HISTORY WORKSHOP
A new family rules in England, and some of the most colourful monarchs
in History take the stage. Henry VIII himself, needs a little help
with his marriage(s), but be careful he has a bad temper. If you
dare, you might ask him a question. Will he answer? Will you keep
your head? Elizabeth I has been told that she must get married,
could you be the man of her dreams? What on earth is that, that
Sir Walter Raleigh has in his hand? Finally a performance of one
of Shakespeares great plays - in two minutes?
All these questions and more are answered in this fully interactive
workshop.
- The War of the Roses
- Henry VIII and his six wives
- Elizabeth I and her ministers
- Sir Walter Raleigh
- Sir William Shakespeare
