Chaucer’s
The Canterbury Tales

Adapted by Brian Willis
Directed by Tom Richards and Brian Willis

The Swansea Little Theatre is proud to present a new production which gives a contemporary setting to Geoffrey Chaucer’s classic tales (well, six of them, anyway). The participants in a protest march find themselves stranded at a medieval theme pub in London, and while away the time with a storytelling competition. Alternating comedy and tragedy, romance and bawdiness, the stories of Chaucer are given contemporary settings and themes – war-torn Iraq, the cult of celebrity, global warming – while maintaining their timeless relevance. Contains strong language and scenes which may be unsuitable for children.
