About

The drama. The scandal. The dynasty. The Tudors like you've never seen them before.

The Tudors are big box office – and it’s easy to see why. With larger-than-life monarchs, gripping court intrigue, epic battles, forbidden love, and more than a few beheadings, no other royal dynasty captures the imagination quite like this one.

Now, in Tudors on Tour, historian and broadcaster Tracy Borman OBE, Chief Historian at Historic Royal Palaces and one of the UK’s most trusted voices on Tudor history, brings the secrets of this iconic royal family to the stage in a thrilling, theatrical experience.

From Henry VIII’s six wives to Elizabeth I’s private world… from Shakespeare and spies to scandals behind the palace walls… this is the real Tudors, revealed in all their glory, filth, glamour and gore.

Using stunning visuals, props, costume, film and music, this is far more than a history lecture, it’s a live show with spectacle, taking audiences behind closed doors to uncover the truth about the dynasty that changed England forever. A bold, unforgettable journey through the private lives of kings and queens who defined an era.

Whether you’re a history buff, a theatre lover or just Tudor-curious – Tudors on Tour is the must-see show that pulls back the velvet curtain on the most dramatic royal family in British history.
