The People's Revolt is back, October 2017. Infiltrate the Tower and find yourself at the centre of a moment which will decide the course of history. 

This collaboration between Historic Royal Palaces and theatre company differencEngine brings past and present together. Set in the near-future, events follow those of the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381 when, led by revolutionary Wat Tyler, peaceful protest turned to violent revolt over taxes, austerity and unstable leadership.
