Sceptred Isle is the story of a century, told through the lives of the last Plantagenets, from the death of Edward I in 1307 to the deposition of Richard II in 1399, uncovering lesser-known voices and untold stories along the way.
Regicide, war, the Black Death, religious antagonism, revolt and the end of a royal dynasty: we encounter the human stories behind a fractured monarchy, the birth of the struggle between Europeanism and nationalism, social rebellion and a global pandemic.
Sceptred Isle explores a century of revolution, shifting power and great change, shedding new light on a pivotal period of English history and the people who lived it.
Helen Carr will be In Conversation with Festival Director Aaron Manning.
