Multi award winning, family friendly, storytelling show comes to the Newcastle Fringe Festival

Imagine Jackanory meets Whose Line Is It Anyway…Live!

The Extraordinary Time-Travelling Adventures of Baron Munchausen
Author: Micky WelchPublished 8th Jul 2024

In this magical show comedians and improvisors are challenged to invent their own increasingly ridiculously tall tales using nothing but their wits, silly hats and the suggestions of an audience of laughing children.

Expect swashbuckling tales of pirates and princesses, giant squids and living portraits, unicorns and dragons, jewels and duels, submarines and time-machines, trips to the moon and castles made of cheese. And all of it completely and irrefutably true!
