SUMMARY:Thespians
DESCRIPTION:THESPIANS – ANCIENT GREECE THE MUSICAL \nMISCHIEF\, the team behind the multi award-winning The Play That Goes Wrong\, rewrite ancient history with a brand-new musical comedy\, THESPIANS\, the first musical created by ‘the funniest theatre troupe in Britain’ (The Telegraph). \n534 BC. Greece’s smallest island is battling to avoid defeat in a nationwide prayer competition set up by a thin-skinned tyrant – where the loser is put to death. All is going dreadfully until Thespis accidentally invents acting\, leading to the world’s first play and the origins of theatre as we know it! \nStep into the amphitheatre\, leave your troubles in the foyer\, and escape into Ancient Greece as it bursts into song\, with a thrilling plot\, a love story worthy of Aphrodite\, and enough laughter to fill the Acropolis. THESPIANS is an uplifting\, hilarious\, and timely reminder of the power of empathy and stepping into someone else’s sandals. \nWritten by Jonathan Sayer (co-writer of The Play That Goes Wrong\, Peter Pan Goes Wrong and The Comedy About A Bank Robbery) and Ed Zanders (musical director Mischief Movie Night)\, do not miss this ancient prescription for modern day laughter packed with comedy\, chaos and choreography that will have every mortal in your household aching with laughter. \nLimited tour from May 2026 for only 12 weeks opening at Mercury Theatre\, Colchester. If you thought something funny happened on the way to the forum\, wait until you hear what happened enroute to the amphitheatre! \nAvoid tragedy\, get comedy tickets today!
