The Story Forge: Make Your Own Myth

Brace yourselves for pandemonium and tidal waves of laughter in this hilariously unique family-friendly theatrical adventure!

Join the ludicrously learned (and undeniably loopy) duo, Professor Doctor Lee Hithersay and Doctor Professor Robert Rhys Bond, as they embark on a quest to forge three brand-new myths live on stage!

Forget dusty history books – these academics champion cardboard chaos and the boundless brilliance of your imagination!

Will our adventure unfold on the sun-drenched shores of ancient Greece, amidst the icy fjords of Viking legend, or in the inky depths of Neptune’s ocean? The choice is yours! Shape the narrative, suggest the world, and even take centre stage as the hero of your very own myth (participation entirely optional, shy souls still welcome!).

From the award-winning imaginations of The Rubbish Shakespeare Company and the Silly History Boys comes an hour of high-octane fun for the whole family. Forge your own unforgettable story and become a legend – you’d be mad to myth it!

‘The most enjoyable hour this critic has spent at the theatre in years… If Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton did children’s theatre, it would look just like this. Outstanding. You’d be mad to Myth it!’
