This immersive comedy epic drops you into the heart of the most iconic wooden animal in history - the Trojan Horse. Become part of this ‘infectiously funny’ (Fringe Review) tale as you contend with heroic egos, class clashes and sword supply issues.
There's only one rule: Odysseus' word is law. And for the love of gods - no naked flames!
Join us for a ‘complete riot of an hour’ (Everything Theatre) and experience what really went on inside the belly of the beast!
