Canterbury Tales

Mappa Mundi’s new revival of their popular sell-out show takes Geoffrey Chaucer’s text and transforms it into a dramatic and comical entertainment, full of wit and charm.

As they make their annual pilgrimage to Canterbury, a group of Welsh commoners pass the time by peforming some of Chaucer’s most appealing tales, filling the stage with a blend of boisterous comedy, romance and fetching images.

The show features some of Chaucer’s best loved stories (including ’The Miller’s Tale’, ’The Nun’s Priest’s Tale’ and ’The Wife of Bath’s Tale’), all set to a delightful Mappa Mundi score. Ideal for all those who enjoy earthy humour and a good story, Canterbury Tales is an enchanting, fast-paced entertainment guaranteed to put hair on your chest!

A light-hearted, joyous and slightly naughty evening is in store!
