Bring
history to life with fun and just a few fantasies.
These two professional re-enactors - Sylvia Strange, Jean Grange - have worked for five years uncovering the facts, myths and intrigues of this remarkable Queen and Empress. They have entertained at many impressive locations. The House of Commons, Cardiff Castle, Birmingham Art Gallery, Manchester City Hall, Sotherbys Auction House of London. English Heritage have taken them to some of the most wonderful castles in the north of England and down south to the Queen's house at Osborne, Isle of Wight. |

National Trust have indulged the Queen's passion for Mr Disraeli at Hughenden Manor, Buckinghamshire, and Hilton Hotels have flown them to Balmoral to meet the Clans! Their costumes are stunning. The Queen's regalia absolutely accurate in every detail. Wherever and whenever they appear people have an uncanny feeling that royalty really have crossed their path. Sylvia and Jean met as antique dealers. A totally unexpected unrealistic challenge propelled them into the unpredictable, exhilarating but unknown world of the theatre. |
