The reign of James I is remembered for the gunpowder plot and the King James Bibles, but less well-known is his popular nickname ‘Queen James’. Join this adults-only evening of drama, drinking and discovery, which explores themes of gender, identity and sexuality in the sepectacular setting of the Banqueting House on Whitehall. Hear secrets of how the Stuarts used makeup to blur the boundaries between the sexes and their craze for cross dressing and watch performances specially devised for the night by performance artist Scottee and playwright Mark Ravenhill. The event is part of Historic Royal Palaces #PalacePride series, book tickets here.
