About the show
This production takes challenging literature and tosses in a good helping of humour to create a silly comedy with a few life lessons along the way.
A small troupe of dedicated cast members (including the director himself!) will multi-role, transforming into characters infant of your eyes with multiple prop and costume changes – let the hilarity ensue!
It is said that Chaucer’s literary masterpiece revolutionised English literature, and in this fast-paced, modern and hilarious adaptation, you’ll meet many of the pilgrims who tell his tales. The Wife of Bath who has cleaned up her act for this adaptation and is now selling self-help DVDs. The parson, the pardoner, and friar join in for the fun as well, telling their tales. The Miller makes an appearance too, though nobody wants to hear anything he has to say!
In true Stone Revellers fashion, St Michaels Hall will be transformed into a magical theatre space, with unreserved cabaret-style seating, with a pie and pea supper served in the interval.
Seating is unreserved, cabaret style, with a pie and pea supper (plus chips for the table!) at the interval included as part of your ticket price. Drinks will be served to your seat, and we accept cash and card payments.
