Four nations, five heroes, two actors – no budget!


This brand new comedy by acclaimed writers Brian Mitchell and Joseph Nixon, the duo behind Edinburgh and touring smash


Those Magnificent Men (as featured at BCAF 2023), romps through some of Britain's bravest heroes, who risked everything to save their country.


Join us as we recreate - and interweave - the great events in their great lives, all done on a shoestring. Relive epic battles!




Shout "Hurrah!" at feats of derring-do!


Marvel as a man burns cakes, another puts a telescope to his blind eye, and a spider tries to spin a web! (Or was that crawl up a cave wall... ?)


Valiantly performed by penniless actors Murray Simon  and Mitchell himself, this cut-price pageant will swell your bosom with pride and split your sides with laughter.



During the interval a Fish and Chips Supper will be served (included in the price of your ticket).

Vegetarian and vegan options available. Please select appropriate ticket, below.


This event is appropriate for an adult audience and children aged 10+. Doors open at 6.30PM There is a bar.


"Cracklingly infectious....Morecambe and Wise meets Horrible Histories....They have succeeded in bringing classic British comedy up to date, which is an amazing feat." - Broadway Baby
