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' . Chaucer's text transformed into a dramatic and comical entertainment, full of wit and charm. As they make their annual pilgrimage to Canterbury, a group of Welsh commoners pass the time by performing some of Chaucer's most appealing tales, filling the stage with a blend of boisterous comedy, romance and fetching images.| 13 Apr 06 | The Coliseum Aberdare, Glamorgan Performance Details => Venue archive |
