Comedy

Glimpses of Chaucer penning his famous work are sprinkled through this re-enactment of several of his stories.

VIBE

A raucous, often shocking, journey through medieval desires and deceptions. Expect bawdy humor, sharp satire, and a darkly erotic exploration of human folly. It's a wild, vignette-driven ride that revels in sin.
