The King, recently married to his new, and sixth, wife, Queen Catherine Parr, is in poor health; his leg continues to cause him considerable pain and he is often in a poor humour!
In the course of the 'audience', His Majesty will recount the events of his long reign; telling of his wives and his children, and His Majesty will invite his Loyal Subjects to Petition him or question him on ANY related subject : there may be some surprising answers - a lively Q&A is assured!
The performance is seated on a first come first served basis in Athelhampton's Tudor Great Hall.
Bar Opens in the Coach House at 6pm, Great Hall at 6.30pm with the performance to begin promptly at 7pm
