Canterbury Tales

Northern Broadsides in partnership with the New Vic Theatre

Geoffrey Chaucer’s
The Canterbury Tales
a new version by Mike Poulton

Come to The Canterbury Tales and experience theatrical riches it’s almost impossible to sum up: love stories, rude stories and farce most lewd, high romance and hidden depths, chivalry, villainy, jousting and boisterous antics, mirth and merriment, poetry and puppetry and a good dose of song and dance.  This is human nature at its best and worst and it’s wickedly entertaining.
