Details Dates/Times & Buy Tickets
Following their five-star show, I, Elizabeth, the award-winning Dyad Productions (A Christmas Carol, Lady Susan, A Room of One’s Own, Christmas Gothic, Austen’s Women, Female Gothic) return to the Elizabethan era.
 
To the famous and fabulous Elizabethan explorer, sailor, dandy, and warrior, Sir Walter Raleigh, Elizabeth I’s favourite, and James I’s knave. 
 
This is a journey through the astonishing highs and lows of one of Britain’s most famous historical figures.  But there’s so much you don’t know...
 
Father, husband, writer, poet, adventurer, philosopher, soldier, tyrant, egotist, lover, traitor, alchemist, visionary, victim. See Sir Walter Raleigh's fall from grace, taken directly from historical record. Marvel at the magnetism of a man who seized every opportunity to create a legacy which spans the centuries.
 
Written and performed by Andrew Margerison (Frantic Assembly’s Fatherland, Macbeth), and directed by Rebecca Vaughan (A Christmas Carol).
 
Created in collaboration with The Old Town Hall, Hemel Hempstead.
