Greg Chapman’s Condensed History of Britain
Magic, music, comedy. From around 6500-6000 BC when the land bridge that once linked Britain to Europe finally disappeared under the sea for the last time, right up to the present day, Greg takes you on a whistle stop tour of the major points of history, packing over 8000 years of history into an hour and a half! Greg Chapman invites you to join him for a look at the history of Britain, but not as you may remember it from history lessons at school! This is a night of entertainment during which – if you aren’t careful – you may learn something!
