#or at least super confused given the operas pro dudleyxamy storyline

Things I learned today:

As a child, Queen Victoria occasionally played with Sir John Conroy's daughters (one was also named Victoria)

There is an opera/ballet called Kenilworth based on Queen Elizabeth I, Robert Dudley, and Amy Robsart.

Queen Victoria "went to the opera and saw the ballet, of which she was very fond, several times."

Queen Victoria had a whole set of dolls based on this ballet. She made Amy and Robert Dudley herself.
