History of the World: Part I
“Ten million years in the making. The truth, the whole truth, and everything, but the truth!”
Comedy
An uproarious version of history that proves nothing is sacred – not even the Roman Empire, the French Revolution and the Spanish Inquisition.
VIBE
This is a riotous, no-holds-barred journey through history, delivered with relentless comedic energy. Expect a barrage of anachronistic gags, musical numbers, and unapologetically silly sketches that skewer everything sacred. It's a boisterous, irreverent romp, perfect for a night of unadulterated laughter and historical absurdity.
