Katherine Howard

Performance Dates: 17th, 18th, 24th, 25th September at 8pm 1st, 2nd, 8th October at 8pm And 26th September at 2pm From the pen of William Nicholson, best known for Shadowlands, comes a strongly crafted new history play in defence of Henry VIII 's fifth wife, Katherine Howard. Howard was beheaded in 1542 for adultery supposedly committed with her premarital sweetheart Thomas Culpeper, or rather for the "violent presumption" of adultery, as the slippery wording of her prosecution put it. History books have presumed the young queen, formerly a lady-in- waiting to Anne of Cleves, did play the king false, supposing her foolish or hedonistic by nature. There is ultimately something passionately alluring to anyone who likes a romantic drama based on truth and this play is bound to please all audiences.
