About us

Join us to discover more about Cleopatra, Queen of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt from 51 to 30 BCE on Thursday, 7 November (7.30pm).

This powerful queen of ancient Egypt has been a source of fascination in all cultures down through the ages.

This talk aims to reveal what we know of her life and illuminate aspects of her character and appearance that may provide a better understanding of what it was that enabled her to captivate the two most powerful men of her time and, what events led to her downfall and untimely death.
