On the night of 04 November 1605, a conspiracy lay beneath the Houses of Parliament: barrels of gunpowder, a plan to kill the King, and a plot that would change England forever.

Join the Choir of the Chapels Royal, HM Tower of London, and Brett Dolman, Curator (Collections) at the Chapel Royal of St. Peter ad Vincula, as they trace the origins, dramatic unravelling and enduring legacy of the Gunpowder Plot. Discover the key role the Tower of London played in the story. Historical narrative will be interwoven with music reflecting the religious and political tensions of the period, and the extraordinary relief and rejoicing that followed the discovery and failure of the plot.
