Back Home – The world premiere of a musical about Anne Boleyn is being performed at her childhood home. Henry VIII’s second wife, who was beheaded in 1536, grew up at Hever Castle in Kent. Anne Boleyn: The Musical is being staged at a specially constructed 1,800-seat outdoor auditorium on the lawn outside the castle until 30 August. A production spokesperson said: “The castle itself forms a key part of the set, heightening the sense of authenticity and theatrical grandeur.”
