Details

Canterbury Tales is a bawdy classic written 700 years ago, it centres on a group of pilgrims who entertain one another with stories as they ride to Canterbury Cathedral. But despite the apparently holy purpose of their journey these travellers reveal themselves as sinners rather than saints. The pilgrims contrasting and colourful backgrounds offer many different stories, from the serious and moral to the farcical and bawdy, proving that like Shakespeare after him, Chaucer was 'not for an age but for all time . Following on from last year's sell-out success of Pride and Prejudice, join Oxford Theatre Guild for their exciting Promenade production of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales at Oxford Castle Unlocked.
