SUMMARY:A Tale of Two Queens: Anne of Cleves & Katherine Howard
DESCRIPTION:What was life really like for Henry VIII’s six wives? Caroline Willcocks\, who has researched and written four successful novels on the Tudor Queens talks about their lives and loves. Was Katherine of Aragon a liar? Was Anne Boleyn a schemer? Did Anne of Cleves smell? Over four talks she discusses these women and the legacy they have left. PLEASE NOTE: this talk will be held at the Local History Centre. \nTalk three\nA Tale of Two Queens: Anne of Cleves & Katherine Howard\nHistory\, Inexperience\, and the Ghosts of Henry VIII’s Wives\n \nEnjoy this engaging talk exploring the lives and legacies of Anne of Cleves and Katherine Howard\, two of Henry VIII’s most enigmatic wives. We’ll delve into how their relative inexperience shaped their time at court\, examining the unique challenges they faced in navigating the treacherous waters of Tudor politics and royal expectations. \nIn the second half\, prepare for a lighter—and spookier—journey as we uncover the ghostly legends surrounding Henry’s wives. From phantom footsteps in haunted halls to spectral encounters that have captured imaginations for centuries\, discover how these women’s stories continue to linger long after their reigns ended. It’s history with a supernatural twist! \nAccompanying novel ‘Girl Queens’ by Caroline Willcocks. \nCaroline has lived in Bromyard for the last six years\, with her husband the poet John Pare\, a dog and a cat. She has worked in the theatre\, freelance journalism and for charities before writing six novels (so far). Her work examines human emotions in a historical context and celebrates the passion and danger of the Tudor court. \nEach talk is standalone but can also be booked as a course of four for the price of three via the Conquest Theatre booking system. Bookings can also be made in person at the theatre on Saturday and Wednesday mornings between 10.30am and 12.30pm.
