A Nun Walks Into a Bar...
In this delightfully raunchy puppet adaptation of Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales, a handful of medieval drunkards share their wild and wonderful tales of the Middle Ages, accompanied by live musicians. Come raise a glass in the name of promiscuity, puppets and pints.
“Canterbury is fast-paced, frenzied, and joyful...It’s inspired and energetic, with seemingly limitless imagination...The sum of the production’s parts is more than just a high-quality show; it’s excitement. It’s everything I hope for when sitting in a darkened theatre before the curtain rises, and so rarely find.”
