The Canterbury Tales Revamped

8th-9th May 2026

The Roaming Revellers return for their third outing with another selection of Chaucer's tales. This time round we bring you a new take on "The Wife of Bath" plus "The Pardoner's Tale". These were joined by an "Introduction to Chaucer", "The Medieval Helpdesk" a comic sketch, "Of a Number of Rats Mistaken for Devils in a Man's Slops" a poem by John Heywood, and music from Canticle with a medieval twist.
