Chaucer’s timeless classic The Canterbury Tales comes vividly to life in this bold, contemporary retelling.

On their journey to Canterbury, a lively band of pilgrims—noble knights, cunning merchants, mischievous wives, and curious travelers—take turns revealing their outrageous, scandalous, and deeply human stories. From forbidden romances to clever tricks, from moral dilemmas to acts of surprising kindness, each tale doth shine a light on love, ambition, greed, jealousy, and the quirks of the human heart.

The show celebrates Chaucer’s language and wit, while giving each character a fresh, modern voice. It balances comedy and pathos, giving audiences moments to laugh, gasp, and reflect, whilst keeping the playful energy, the clever turns of phrase, and the sharp observations that render the tales timeless. Audiences shall occasionally blush as secrets are revealed and reputations tested.

But as the pilgrims march toward Canterbury, whose story shall endure—and whose truths be exposed?

The Canterbury Tales invites audiences to laugh, reflect, and connect with this timeless story in a fresh, contemporary way, reimagined with unforgettable energy, humor, and music.
