HISTORY will come alive at an event in Lichfield next month.
Lesley Smith will appear as Mary Queen of Scots at The Old Stables on 12th May.
A spokesperson said:
“Mary Queen of Scots is one of history’s polarising characters.
“For some, she was a victim and a Catholic martyr, for others a manipulative schemer and the author of her own misfortune.
“Queen of Scotland by birth and of France by marriage, she was deposed and imprisoned in Scotland after she was implicated in the murder of her second husband.
“Here is a chance to meet Mary Queen of Scots in full authentic costume during her time behind bars at Tutbury, where she spent a lot of time reading, writing letters and doing embroidery.
“Learn about Mary’s three marriages and about life in general in Tudor times.”
Tickets are £14 and can be booked online.
