About

Take a queer histories tour of Bath Assembly Rooms looking at people from 1770 to 1900. We'll share the stories of people that might have identified as LGBTQ+ and it's suitable for anyone that wants to learn about the history of this place from a new angle.

The likes of Oscar Wilde, Chevalier d'Eon, Anne Lister and local man William Beckford. All these people lived or came to Bath to perform or play out their part in history and during this tour we explore what happened to them whilst at the Assembly Rooms.
