Magic, Mystics and Martyrs

"...By the pricking of my thumbs,

Something wicked this way comes."

Macbeth, Shakespeare

This is a brand new walk exploring the ghosts of some lesser known lady mystics, witches, rebels and ‘working women’ of the City. Starting at the Monument and ending at Tower Hill, this theatrical walk will introduce you to...

An infamous phantom lady of the Financial district…

The notorious Billingsgate fish wives…

A prophetess who predicted crazy cat ladies (among other things! )

A satanic noblewoman…

A rebellious martyr…

Women that lost their heads (in more ways than one!)​

We’ll end with a tipple at none other than the Hung, Drawn and Quartered pub. Gruesomely fitting for the spooky season!

As always, the HERstorical tales in this tour will be interspersed with unexpected theatrical surprises. Expect to be spooked, expect to laugh, and expect to learn lots of new interesting facts about London and her lost ladies….
