Historian Lucy Worsley time travels back to the Tudor Court to witness some of the most dramatic moments in the lives of Henry VIII s Six Wives. Combining drama written by Chloe Moss with Lucy s own contemporary historical comment, Lucy will move seamlessly from the present to the past, appearing as a range of silent servants: a maid, midwife or nurse maid. As the drama plays out, Lucy eavesdrops on the events in the Royal Court and reports back. The Tudor court was made up of a small group of powerful families all vying for influence and power over each other. While... it was a world run by men, and the King had ultimate power, each Queen (as well as their ladies in waiting) found their own unique methods of exerting influence. For the first time, it is these women s stories that Lucy wants to uncover, witness and explore, as well as offering a very new lens on Henry himself. [show more]
