Award-winning Dyad Productions (Lady Susan, A Room of One’s Own, Christmas Gothic, Austen’s Women, Female Gothic) return to the Elizabethan era with the famous and fabulous explorer, sailor, dandy, and warrior, Sir Walter Raleigh.

This is a journey through the astonishing highs and lows of one of Britain’s most famous men.  But there’s so much you don’t know...

In a life spanning around 65 years, Sir Walter Raleigh achieved more than others might do in a hundred lifetimes. Over a decade in the tower and still he held power. 

The Huguenots, America, The Armada, and execution. Is that the whole story? The final chapter of Raleigh’s life is perhaps the most daring, strange and utterly heart-breaking.

See the fall from grace taken directly from historical records and 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, and directed by Rebecca Vaughan.
