Escape the office dramas this lunchtime and lose yourself in another at our Lunchbox Theatre.
Canterbury Tales
By Geoffrey Chaucer
In a new version devised by the company
Directed by Mark Leipacher
Produced by the faction theatre co. in association with the Bridewell Theatre
“Five husbands I’ve had. It’s a fact! I’ve had that many. All okay in their way. As good as any.”
A Knight, a Merchant, a Judge, two Nuns and a Monk set off towards a shrine. Sounds like the start of joke? It is! In order to occupy themselves on the journey, the wacky, witty and wasted pilgrims entertain each other with hilarious antics.
Bring your lunch, grab a jug of mead, and join us for the original road movie packed with bawdy and raucous fun.
Dating back to the 1300s, this towering literary masterpiece is given a fresh, boisterous and modern twist by the faction theatre co. acclaimed for their clarity of storytelling and trademark visual inventiveness.
