tudor roses among thorns: the court of king henry vii
Director: bailey vandewalle


Picture
Tudor England has been the subject of much study in popular culture; inspiring television shows, movies, and dozens of books. The reign of Henry VIII was fraught with violence, controversy, and scandal, making it ripe for dramatization. However, in this process much of the true story has been forgotten. The Queens of Henry VIII’s reign are often reduced to little more than a single word explaining the end of their marriage with Henry, and his courtiers reduced to their family’s status in his court. In this committee, you will explore the vibrant community that was King Henry VIII’s court, and all the interesting issues that arise surrounding it.
The specialized elements in this committee will allow you to explore the cutthroat nature of court, seizing power and raising the status of your family. Your success at court will be dependent on your ability to appease the King while ensuring England’s interests are being properly looked after. The line of succession, relations with France and with Spain, conflict (or lack thereof) with the Catholic Church, and the temperament of King Henry are all issues relevant to the progression of the Court.  ​
