A mother who lost four sons in 1066. Three sons killed at the Battle of Hastings, one son branded a traitor. A firstborn lost on foreign soil. But these are times of turmoil, where crowns on the head go with swords in the hand. And this mother has lost everything. Two years later, in Exeter, King Harolds Mother makes her last stand against the might of the new king, William the Bastard. She is also forced to face the consequences of her actions to accept the overwhelming of the Conqueror. Nothing will ever be the same again. Is nothing all she is left with? Is nothing better than this? Written and directed by Heather Leech ( Rose Bruford College of Performing Arts , Idolrich Theatre, Rotto Puppet Theatre Compan y ), this compelling piece is part of a triptych that includes Guy Fawkes' Mother and Anne Boleyn's Mother , both of which will be playing at Beccles Public Hall and Theatre in 2026.
