Mary Beard – The Secret Histories of Ancient Rome
Location: King's Theatre, Glasgow
Renowned historian Mary Beard returns with The Secret Histories of Ancient Rome. Coming to Glasgow’s King’s Theatre on 11th October 2026.
Renowned historian Mary Beard returns to the stage after her sold-out 2025 tour, stepping once more into the world of Ancient Rome — a civilisation whose stories still shape the way we see ourselves today.
In this captivating live event, Mary takes you beyond the well-worn paths of emperors and battles, revealing the rich and complex lives of those often left out of the history books. She rewrites popular narratives, casting fresh light on what we think we know.
But this isn’t just about the past—Mary draws thought-provoking connections between Roman politics and today’s world. What can we learn from the history of Rome, how might it resonate with the political landscapes we navigate today? Why does Rome still matter?
