The Play
Anne Boleyn: No secret lasts forever…
It’s 1536. The woman who changed the world forever by capturing the heart of a king faces trial with her brother for adultery, incest and treason.
See Carrick’s extraordinary new play starring Emma Connell and Scott Ellis inside the awesome setting of the Tower of London. Performances take place in the Banqueting Suite in the New Armouries as the sun sets on the site of Anne’s trial, execution and final resting place.
Praise for the play
“Accomplished writing, astute direction and exemplary history… A practically flawless piece of theatre.” Suzannah Lipscomb
“Carrick succeeds in drawing a great contemplative sweep of emotions.” Ben Sharratt, The Stage
Well, I’ve got tickets for the 19th May. The leading actors certainly look the part. Please please let them do justice to Anne and George!!! I’m sure they will.
You lucky, lucky lady, Louise. And on that memorable day too! I really hope you enjoy it, you will have to let us all know what it was like
.
I saw the other ‘Anne Boleyn’ play last year in Edinburgh, that had an unusual portrayal to it, very humourous in parts, not one for those that like straight facts maybe, but I enjoyed it though.
Fingers crossed this may venture up to Scotland one day.
I envy you, Louise,,i really wish i lived in the UK, so i can see the play, visit the tower, etc.
I saw the play a year ago in Ipswich, and it was so good we’re going again! Booked tickets for 9pm at the tower so hopefully it’ll seem even more dramatic, with the buildings lit up after dark. It moved me to tears last time and I’m sure it will again!
I’ll be going to the 6.30pm performance on the 17th. I shall pay my respects to George and the others on Tower Hill first.
My aunty is Emma Connell who is staring in this and i am so proud of her! 🙂 x
