Adapted by Lindsay Price from Chaucer
"What if the story is so long that time drags on and on and on and I have to leave the group and cry by the side of the road and I never get to Canterbury?!"
Chaucer's classic collection of tales comes to life in a brilliant full-length adaptation.
A group of travelers set out for Canterbury on a pilgrimage. To pass the time they entertain each other with a storytelling contest. Best story wins a prize.
Each and every performer gets a chance to shine in this spirited, charming script.
Great characters, lots of humour, and strong ensemble work. Text uses modern English.
