Our unique partnership – Henry VIII
In a unique partnership the 'UK Young Publisher of the Year' SelfMadeHero publishes Henry VIII as part of its acclaimed Manga Shakespeare series in association with Historic Royal Palaces, the charity responsible for Hampton Court Palace and four other uninhabited royal palaces in and around London.
The manga version of Henry VIII was originally a play written by William Shakespeare that has strong connections with Hampton Court Palace, which you will find out about through this production blog. It will be published in April 2009 will coincide with the 500th anniversary of Henry VIII's accession to the throne.
The artist for Henry VIII is Patrick Warren, who illustrated Richard III in the Manga Shakespeare series in 2007. Patrick is researching period costumes, interiors and exteriors at Hampton Court Palace and the Tower of London to create a manga blend of historical accuracy and Shakespearean drama.
The team behind the manga will be posting character sketches and page layouts from Patrick, snippets from the script as well as images from Hampton Court Place that are used by Patrick as he creates Henry VIII.
We'll also post stories about Hampton Court Palace's connection to Henry VIII's story and events at the Palace connected to the manga.
