The Extraordinary Time-Travelling Adventures of Baron Munchausen at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre
31 May, 2023
The Extraordinary Time-Travelling Adventures of Baron Munchausen promises swords, duels, elephants, castles built of cheese and all of it completely and irrefutably true! Live in the Norman Bragg studio at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre, a little treat for May Half Term.
Discover how the Baron invented Morris dancing, how his actions saved the Isle of Skye from sinking beneath the waves, why every fourth child in Bruges is named after him and other fantastically delightful stories. This show will delight adults and children with its wonderful joie de vivre and other pretentious words!
Winner of the “Best Children’s Show on the Fringe” at Manchester last year, this exciting new concept show features award-winning comedians and improvisers who are challenged by one another to invent outrageously exaggerated swashbuckling stories based on the The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. All they have is their wits, some silly hats and the suggestions of an audience full of giggling children (and their grown-ups) to ensure that all ends happily ever after!
