Great play, not historically accurate.

Very dramatic reading of a very dramatic play! However the historical accuracy is dubious at best. Still, a fun romp through Tudor England, and Catherine Howard herself is a fascinating and tragic figure. Queen at 16yo, executed at 18yo, her prior marriage was never proved but Henry executed her alleged husband anyway!
Wow!

It sounds like the readers had fun with this short drama. Good job with the writing and keeping an old story fresh.
Good...

Pretty dramatic, however, it was kinda over dramatic sometimes. Thanks, though!
