About this listen

Discover how Anne of Denmark shaped the culture of the Stuart court—from dazzling masques and groundbreaking stagecraft to political influence, artistic patronage, and a powerful performance legacy that helped define the world Shakespeare lived in. In this episode, Clare McManus joins us to explore how Anna’s identity, her innovations in court performance, and her role as a cultural force reveal a very different picture of queenship in early modern England.
