A pair of very silly ‘history professors’ forge three new myths from the unhinged minds of their audience – and a boatload of cardboard props.

Help shape the stories and become the hero yourself in an epic interactive experience. This hilarious hour of high-octane adventure features clowning, storytelling, and live music, sure to entertain both children and childish adults.

Presented by Rubbish Shakespeare Company & Silly History Boys
