The Night of The Knight of the Burning Pestle

T01104523674
The players' peerless performance of The London Merchant is thrown into disarray when their fiercest critics challenge both the theatrical establishment and social order, gate-crashing the show to stage their own production. But with no script and no rehearsal, the limits of professionalism are tested in a raucous, chaotic play like no other. Beaumont's comedy is reimagined in a farcical, Pythonesque production where anything that could go wrong does, placing the audience centre stage in an uproarious new version.
