Historical re-enactment

Historical re-enactment was the recreation of events or places after the time of their existence had passed.

The Eighth Doctor and Lucie Miller once found themselves inside the mind of Sepulchre, who sustained re-enactments of London throughout various points in its history, and preyed upon their living inhabitants. (AUDIO: Dead London)

From 2250 onwards, the leisure planet Zeen 4 specialised in historical re-enactments, (TV: The Leisure Hive) where a person could choose what episode in history they wanted to see re-enacted or take part in themselves. Re-enactment of 20th century Earth history was forbidden on Zeen 4, as it was considered to be too violent. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Leisure Hive)

In 2501, prisoners on Justice Alpha were forced to take part in historical re-enactments of Egyptian pyramid-building as part of the Justicia company's programme of experimental punishments. These re-enactments also generated profit for the company by attracting tourists to the planet. (PROSE: The Monsters Inside)
