The world premiere of Anne Boleyn the Musical will debut at Hever Castle, Anne Boleyn’s childhood home, from 2-30 August 2025, it has been announced.
The musical will play in a specially constructed 1,800 seat outdoor auditorium in the grounds of the Kent castle. Directed by Roxana Silbert, with a book by Rebecca Night, lyrics by Rebecca Night & Sam Kenyon, and music composed by Sam Gevers, it will tell the captivating story of Anne Boleyn at the very place where her journey began.
Anne says farewell to her family and embarks on a life-changing journey to the royal courts of Flanders and France. Though her goodbyes are difficult, Anne’s adventure will shape not only her future but the future of England itself…
Anne Boleyn the Musical explores the transformation from a young girl leaving England, into a young woman who returns to Hever Castle, destined to attract a King. The rise and fall of their relationship forever altered the course of history.
Celebrated as one of history’s most intriguing and influential women, Anne's true nature, her ambitions, and her generosity will finally be revealed—within the very walls where her mind was shaped and her legacy forged.
Historalia Productions co-founder and director Eliane Astor-de Merode, who is also the future Lady Astor of Hever, said: “Hever Castle is more than just Anne Boleyn’s childhood home; it’s a living monument to her life and the historical events that shaped her destiny. The historic walls of the castle have witnessed the joys and sorrows of Anne’s life, and now, in August 2025, they will once again come alive with the story of this remarkable woman through our musical. This production will offer visitors a unique opportunity to step back in time and experience the world as Anne might have known it, within the very grounds where she grew up.
“It is a privilege to play a part in bringing Anne Boleyn the Musical to life at this historic estate. Hever has always been intertwined with Anne Boleyn’s story, and through this production, I’m excited to continue that legacy. It is important to maintain the connection between our family and this place, which meant so much to my children's ancestors.”
The show will feature set and costume design by Robert Innes-Hopkins, sound by the Ringham Brothers, and lighting by Michel Jacobs.
Full casting and creative team will be announced in due course.

I visited Hever Castle recently with my parents, it was a truly remarkable experience! you are provided with optional headsets and tablets which describe the rooms of the house. we visited the room where Henry the VII stayed in, some say it felt eerie but it was incredible!
